title: How can I get Proj4 details from the shapefile's .prj file?
body: <p>I am using mapdotnet services for our gis application to load the shapefiles, and this mapdotnet service wants the proj4 details.  I'm getting them from spatialreference.org, but for <a href="http://spatialreference.org/ref/sr-org/6905/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this projection</a> the proj4 details are <a href="http://spatialreference.org/ref/sr-org/6905/proj4" rel="nofollow noreferrer">blank</a>.  How can I get the proj4 details from the .prj file or from the shapefile?</p>
  
  <p>Below is the shapefile's .prj:</p>
