Hi PROJ community A few days ago I asked this in Mastodon:
Question: Do you know why some **projected** coordinate reference systems use axis order Northing-Easting? Is that a historical reason? (The most common case nowadays is Easting-Northing) It's even more confusing when Northing uses abbreviation X and Easting uses Y. Please, replay if you know. Bonus for westing-southing ;) -Edit- Clarification: it is about projected coordinates, in meters or feet; not about lat-lon https://mapstodon.space/@jjimenezshaw/112334199718200963 In this replay there are some examples of fancy axis orderings: https://mapstodon.space/@jjimenezshaw/112339005590088608 Does anybody here has any clue? Thanks. .___ ._ ..._ .. . ._. .___ .. __ . _. . __.. ... .... ._ .__
