I am having problems using the FME Define custom Coordinate System Tool (demos-safe-software.fmecloud.com/fmedatastreaming/Coordsys/Start.fmw).

​

I want to make the ITRF2014 coordinate system that is in ESRI available in FME. I have used this ESRI WKT file from ITRF2014 - EPSG:9000 :

​

GEOGCS["ITRF2014",

DATUM["International_Terrestrial_Reference_Frame_2014",

SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],

PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],

UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]]

​

However, when I test the new coordsys files I get errors.

 

Any help in tracking down what I am doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @bigcl​,

The coordinate system uses a datum that is not defined in FME, so it cannot presently be created using the online tool. I have manually created the definitions for the datum 'ITRF2014' and coordinate system 'LL-ITRF2014', in the attached zip file.

Awesome Dave - many thanks for that.
