Explanation of the PROJ string by GitHub Copilot:

  • +proj=somerc: Uses the Swiss Oblique Mercator projection.
  • +lat_0=46.95240555555556: Latitude of the origin.
  • +lon_0=7.439583333333333: Longitude of the origin.
  • +k_0=1: Scale factor at the origin.
  • +x_0=2600000: False easting.
  • +y_0=1200000: False northing.
  • +ellps=bessel: Specifies the Bessel 1841 ellipsoid.
  • +towgs84=674.374,15.056,405.346,0,0,0,0: Transformation parameters to WGS84.
  • +units=m: Units in meters.
  • +no_defs: No additional definition files.
