I have a csv file with both lat and long fields that I would like to be converted from GAUSS-Kruger to UTM system. I tried a .csv reader and a "reprojector" transformer and a csv writer. The output csv is simple the same as my original input. Any ideas? thanks!

Two transformers exist for reprojection:

The standard Reprojector and the more advanced CSMAPReprojector.

These links give you information on both.

In case of a CSV the reader needs to convert the X and Y to geometries for the transformers.

Another option would be using the AttributeReprojector on these attributes without creating a geometry.
