Hello all, Does anyone know the proper format to use to include the BC Albers in MapInfo projection file? I am importing and E00 and the projection is not available as a choice.
The projection is Albers Equal Area Conic, with parameters of : Central meridian: -126.0 (126:00:00 West longitude) Latitude of projection origin: 45.0 (45:00:00 North latitude) First standard parallel: 50.0 (50:00:00 North latitude) Second standard parallel: 58.5 (58:30:00 North latitude) False easting: 1000000.0 (one million metres) False northing: 0.0 The datum is NAD83, based on the GRS80 ellipsoid. or Projection ALBERS Datum NAD83 Units METERS Xshift 0.0000000000 Yshift 0.0000000000 Parameters 50 0 0.000 /* 1st standard parallel 58 30 0.000 /* 2nd standard parallel -126 0 0.000 /* central meridian 45 0 0.000 /* latitude of projection's origin 1000000.00000 /* false easting (meters) 0.00000 /* false northing (meters) end In MapInfo.prj file there is..... "--- North American Coordinate Systems ---" "Albers Equal-Area Conic (North America)", 9, 62, 7, -96, 23, 20, 60, 0, 0 How do I add this projection to MapInfo?? Thanks in advance. Steve
