I’m trying to import TOPO maps (MRSid format) into MapInfo.

 

The sources FAQs  say that the projection is “Decimal Degrees” – I’m not sure what that is telling me – relative to the projection Options in MI…

 

The metadata mentions UTM Zone 13 (NAD 27)

 

When I use that projection I get locations such as

 

           X Cord     459,082.52

           Y Cord   3,913,385.49

 

 

Which really makes NO sense to me!

 

I open the MRSid into OpenEV and I get the same type of X Y Cordinates.

 

 

 

I’m sure that I’m making a mistake somewhere!!!!  Have you any suggestion?

 

 

Thanks!
