Hello Nigel,

The DCW does not have any native projection. All data is expressed in
latitude/longitude
coordinates using the WGS-84 datum. So, if you bring in the data to MI, just make sure
you
coordinate system is "Latitude/Longitude (WGS-84)". You then have the choice of
projecting it in
a number of ways using MI Pro.
A word of warning - Russia's coverage in DCW is very poor in many places. Exercise
caution in
how you use it.
