GEOTRANS File Processing Window

The GEOTRANS File Processing window consists of the following elements, from top to bottom:

-        a Datum field which displays the code and name of the input datum specified in the header of the input coordinate file,

-        an Ellipsoid field, which displays the code and name of the reference ellipsoid associated with the input datum,

-        the name of the input coordinate reference frame type specified in the header of the input coordinate file,

-        a set of parameter fields and/or controls for the current input coordinate reference frame type, if it has any parameters, which display the parameter values specified in the current input coordinate file.

-        a Datum pull-down list, which displays the code and name of the currently selected output datum, and which you can use to select a different output datum,

-        an Ellipsoid field, which displays the code and name of the reference ellipsoid associated with the currently selected output datum,

-        a pop-up menu of coordinate reference frame types, containing the same entries as the pop-up menus in the main window, which you can use to specify the coordinate reference frame type of the output coordinate file,

-        a set of parameter fields for the currently selected output coordinate reference frame type, if it has any parameters, which you can use to specify the parameter values that are to be used in the output coordinate file,

-        when the selected output coordinate reference frame is Geodetic, a Coordinate Order box containing a pair of radio buttons, which you can use to specify the order of the output geodetic coordinates (Latitude-Longitude or Longitude-Latitude).

-        OK – which causes the output parameters to be evaluated and the Save As dialog box to appear,

-        Help – which activates the on-line help for file processing, and

-        Cancel – which aborts file processing, and returns you to GEOTRANS the main window.
