ENTER AND ASSIGN STATE PLANE IN CARLSON SURVEY

[GOATFAZE]

My Question is how do you enter and assign latitude and longitude coordinates to create points?

I ask this because i used my hand held gps for recon found some iron pins took shots on the with my hand held (good for with in 5'). and now i would like to enter those cordinates in carlson survey and rotate the deed in, or a least check the distances with the cordinates i shot.

Can Carlson Survey even do this???

Pull down Points menu, Select Coordinate File Utilities, Select Coordinate Transformation, then it should work for you.

Have you ever done this before because i can not get it to work correctly it never puts the points in the right location. any input on how to use this feature for my application??

Yes, we do it all the time with out a problem. What version are you using?

I just figured out what i was doing wrong. i was entering the direction and then the degrees minutes seconds. if you do that it always puts it in the same location 00°00'00". You must enter the degrees and then the direction. Thank you for your help to let me know i was on the right track
