GeoCalc is a handy tool that helps you convert different coordinate data files. It works great with various mapping systems and can easily team up with any geographic information system software. This means you can quickly calculate coordinates in any of the systems it supports!
You have options when it comes to inputting data. You can either type it in manually or import it from a points file saved on your computer. GeoCalc plays nicely with several types of files, like GeoComp field files (FLD), GeoNav coast files (CST), text documents, or even UKOOA P1/90 and XYZ points files.
The choice is yours! You can display the coordinates as latitude and longitude, as 'easting and northing' pairs, or even as geocentric (X, Y, Z) points. The best part? GeoCalc allows you to convert directly between these formats so you can save the output right on your device.
You’ll find that GeoCalc supports a variety of mapping systems like Mercator, Transverse Mercator (which is used in places like Australia, Germany, North America, the UK, and Russia), Stereographic (great for Hungary, Poland, the Netherlands, and polar regions), Cassini-Soldner, Gnomic, Skew Orthomorphic, and Lambert Parallel.
If you're feeling hands-on, you can choose both the source and target mapping systems yourself and pick which length unit to use. Once you hit that 'Calculate' button, you'll see results for all coordinate types pop up instantly!
You also have the power to adjust your calculations by changing spheroid parameters and map system definitions. The accuracy of your results will depend on how many decimals you set for length measurements and seconds of arc.
GeoCalc is truly an awesome tool for anyone into GIS—whether you're a pro or just starting out! It makes converting coordinate values super easy while displaying geographic projections in different mapping systems. Ready to give it a try? Check out this link for more info!
