Hello,

 

 

is it possible to transform e.g. shape-Files using the NTv2 - method and using an own data grid (ascii or binar) ?

 

 

Thanks for your answers

Hi,

 

 

this is a bit outside of my domain, but take a look under the menu Tools / FME Options / Coordinate Systems. I believe you can double-click on the entries to specify the grid shift file(s) there.

Hey David,

 

 

yes it's possible to specify the grid files there. But where can I tell FME that it should use the NTv2-method instead of a 7-Parameter-transformation?

 

 

I normally use the FME Translator to reproject my shape files or the reprojector in FME workbench.

 

 

Regards
