Hi guys,
I received a data package with locations given in the Canadian Alberta
Township System recently. I found an online converter that converts the
ATS coordinates into WGS84-coordinates as a point coordinate from the
center of the section. However, doublechecking these coordinates then
with a Google Hybrid Layer in order to identify single so called quarter
sections appears difficult: The WGS84-coordinates do not match with
centres of fields displayed in the satellite imagery. Thus, I have
difficulties in identifying single quarter sections correctly.
Does anyone have a helpful source or hint? I am aware that the Township
system is not a projection by itself. However it would be cool, having a
tool displaying the Township grid (correctly) in QGIS.
Thanks for your help
Cheers
Michael
