I'm using geoserver and leaflet to show some data in an application.
The geoserver connect to a DB which contains spatial data (points) in EPSG:3785
format.
Leaflet require EPSG:4326
format to show data so I'm getting geojson reference of this data asking the geoserver to reproject the coordinates from EPSG:3785
to EPSG:4326
using WFS param srsName
. The problem is, while longitude is reprojected correctly latitude is not.
Fore example one of my points has this coordinates: 1078019.71674498 ; 5630250.19147139
Using CS2CS to convert them the result is 9.68401588134 ; 45.0554183303
(which are correct when showed on the map), while the geoserver returns 9.68401588 ; 45.24751598
, way far from the position they should represent (rougthly 30km north).
I cannot understand why is just the longitude that is wrong neither what should I do to prevent this from happening, aside from asking data in the correct format.
Does anyone happen to had the same problem? Looking in the internet I couldn't find anything that could help me.
I tried to convert data in the layer definition but it was useless, the problem persist.
In case anyone would face this problem in future here is the solution:
as LucasP.Luiz commented, it is simple as setting Declared SRS
in layer definition to EPSG:3857 (see example), then the projection works as intended.
