Description
Combines the advantages of the Onestep and the
Classic 3D transformation. It allows treating position
and height separately, but is not restricted to smaller
areas. Procedure:
1. The WGS 1984 coordinates of the common
control points are shifted closely to the local
datum using a given Classic 3D pre-transforma-
tion. This is typically a rough transformation valid
for the country of the local datum.
2. The coordinates are projected onto a preliminary
grid, but this time using the true map projection
of the local points.
3. A 2D transformation is applied, exactly as with
the Onestep transformation.
The position and height transformations are sepa-
rated.
When measurements are to be forced to tie in with
local existing control in areas larger than 10 x 10 km.
•
The position is known in WGS 1984 and in the
local system for at least one point. Four points or
more are recommended in order to obtain higher
redundancy.
•
Parameters of the local ellipsoid.
•
Parameters of the local map projection.
