Transformation of Vector, Raster, and Matrix Maps |
The task of transforming the map projection allows for changing the type of map projection, projection parameters, ellipsoid, and datum. For example, one can switch the zone of a topographic map or transition from the 1963 coordinate system to the 1942 coordinate system. The task enables transitioning from the 1995 topographic map coordinate system to a general geographic map in Mercator projection on the WGS84 ellipsoid, and so on.
Dialog of task consists of 2 parts. In the left part the source parameters of the projection of a vector map are displayed. If the projection parameters are not installed or not fully entered, then the task can not be executed. On the right part initially the same parameters of the projection map are displayed. You can change individual values or enter a completely new ones. Use the Copy button you can copy the settings from an existing map projections, raster or matrix.
Map in the new projection will be placed in the folder specified by the user in the Output map field. All files names of map remain unchanged. If you open the document, contained several maps, then at once all maps can be transformed. To do this, select the field Convert the all maps. After selecting the required values, you must click Ok button. After the completion of transforming the new map will be automatically opened in a new window. |
