This dialog is used to:
- Set the projected coordinate system for the GeoPlan. It is displayed when you click
in the
Select Coordinate System dialog. See
Selecting the Coordinate System for details.
Note: Although the coordinate system list for a MapXtreme map control includes 'Longitude and Latitude' options, these are geographic not projected coordinate systems and therefore should not be selected for use in InfoWorks ICM. - Change the coordinate system for a shape file layer. It is displayed when you click
in the
GIS Layer Control dialog, and lets you change the coordinate system for a MapXtreme shape file. See below for details.
Note: If
ArcGIS Maps (Tech Preview) is the current map control, coordinate systems for shapefile GIS Layers need to bet set before adding those layers.
