Greeting all . . .
Please excuse any cross-listing that occurs from this message as
I have sent it out to several different nets.
The situation is this:
I have the need to translate latitude/longitude coordinants into
easting/northing coordinants. I have a program that completes
the job nicely for the United States (COORDS83 ver. 1.0, Gerald
Willis Mahun, 8616 Fairway Pl., Middleton, WI 53562), but I find
a need for translation of Canadian coordinants (specifically Manitoba
at the moment, but that may change by tomorrow - or perhaps it has
already changed, I'm just unaware of it - the stuff flowing down-
hill theory you know)!
Is there, or rather, where is there a program that can do lat/long
into easting/northing translations for Canadian locations? I am
extremely open to suggestions. Please post replies directly to me,
and I will summarize the replies I receive to the net in about a
week or so. We have availability to many different computers, so
advice for programs designed for different systems will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
