Can anyone show me the process of converting a Lat/Lon to coordinates?

  • I just got a Autocad macro (vba project) working that will convert State Plane Coordinates to Latitude and Longitude. Click a point in the drawing and it converts the SPCS of that point to Lat/Long and then labels the values at the point you clicked. You can also Enter Lat/Long and a point is plotted and labeled.

    You must have the corpscon_v6.dll in C:\program files\Corpscon6 along with the folders containing geoid, nadcon, vertcon data files. These are installed with the free download from http://www.agc.army.mil/corpscon/

    I tested in Autocad 2004 and 2013. The form is setup for my local SPCS zones (1601 and 1602), but it can be modified for any zone(s).Ā 

    email me if interested.

How to use Forums
Our forums on Land Surveyors United are here to be used as much for finding help with problems in the field as the are for you to express your opinions on anything that has to do with land surveying in general. Feel free to share anything that is on your mind, as long as it isn't meant to damage another member's reputation. Please keep it clean and help insure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of being part of a community that grows together.

We are committed to allowing freedom of expression for all of our members, and that includes maintaining a safe space for people with opposing views to express themselves. We get posts from all over the country and even the globe, so needless to say, people come with different viewpoints on lad surveying practices and processes. We see this diversity and variety as a real strength-- dialogue and debate are an integral part of the educational process, as well as an important tool in exploring different sides of complex issues.

All Community Hubs inside the community have their own forum for asking specific questions to other surveyors, by location, equipment type, etc.
