Hello Gustaf - my South African maps are also in Gauss
Conform which several other, and better informed, IDRISIANs
have informed me is just another name for Gauss Kruger and
Transverse Mercator - does this help you any?
My Gauss Conforms are based on Clarke 1880 but I don;t know
about your Latvian ones.
Good luck
Lorna
