I am looking for something that can help out with this situation. There are several agencies producing GIS data for various feature points, they all want to export this out as ArcGIS shape files as thats the norm for their arena of use.
These shapefiles have an x/y point system... but not lat/long which is needed to map this stuff. Is there something that converts this x/y to a lat/long pair that is useful to plot on the map??? I've looked at shp2txt, its just spits out this x/y system, not lat/ long. Is this x/y system based on some known lat/long pair reference point that can be mathematically applied to these x/y points? ? ? We don't use ArcGIS, KML or any thing for this.. We strictly use lat/ long pairs, FL TRS (PLSS), and USNG to plot points stored in MySQL. Any clues on how to turn these data sources into something usable, especially on Linux based systems like shp2txt would be greatly welcomed so we can pass it on to be mapped.
