Hi,
This reminds of a question that I have been wanting to ask. Can anyone
supply the specifications for the
Gauss-Kruger projection used in Argentina? I would love to have it handy to
paste in when needed, or even hard wire it
as a choice among the drop down list. What I have been able to learn so far
is that they use the south pole as 0, and not the equator?
Does this make semse?
TIA
