>> just one question .. what is this bursa wolf parameter option? it is used to transform from one ellipsoid (e.g. WGS84) to another ellipsoid (e.g. Clarke 1866). (actually on the geotools page they speak of spheroid instead ellipsoid, where the latter is a specialisation)
and - i am not really sure, but there is second method that can be used for such transformation. But anyway.. as far as i know the use of Bursa-Wolf is quite common. if you stay with the ellipsoid you should not need to define params (or maybe they are zero?) stefan > That is one of our most common questions: > - http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTDOC/11+Referencing+FAQ > > My impression is that this is scary math I never quite understood.
