Hi Even, thank you! After the INSERT INTO "grid_transformation" VALUES( 'PROJ','Minden','DHDN to ETRS89 (Minden)','DHDN to ETRS89 for City of Minden.','For applications requiring an accuracy of cm.','EPSG','9615','NTv2','EPSG','4313','EPSG','4258','EPSG','1625',NULL,'EPSG','8656','Latitude and longitude difference file','Minden.gsb',NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,0);
(adapting the BWTA2017 record) and restarting QGIS the transformation appears in the Select Datum Transformations-dialog. It seems to work and the result is visibly more accurate than the BETA2007. But I get a waring everytime the transformation is applied or loaded: An alternative, ballpark-only transform was used when transforming coordinates between EPSG:31467 - DHDN / 3-degree Gauss-Kruger zone 3 and EPSG:25832 - ETRS89 / UTM zone 32N. The results may not match those obtained by using the preferred operation: +proj=pipeline +step +inv +proj=tmerc +lat_0=0 +lon_0=9 +k=1 +x_0=3500000 +y_0=0 +ellps=bessel +step +proj=hgridshift +grids=Minden.gsb +step +proj=utm +zone=32 +ellps=GRS80 Possibly an incorrect choice of operation was made for transformations between these reference systems. Check the Project Properties and ensure that the selected transform operations are applicable over the whole extent of the current project. (in German: Eine alternative ungenaue Transformaton wurde zur Koordinatentransformation zwischen EPSG:31467 - DHDN / 3-degree Gauss-Kruger zone 3 und EPSG:25832 - ETRS89 / UTM zone 32N. Die Ergebnisse könnten nicht mit denen der bevorzugten Operation übereinstimmen. Möglicherweise wurde eine falsche Operation zwischen den Referenzsystemen gewählt. Bitte die Projekteigenschaften prüfen und sicherstellen das die gewählten Transformationsoperationen auf das ganze Projektausmaß anwendbar sind.) Don't know what exactly this tries to tell me, but I think something is still missing and so far I was not able to find a correct "operation" to point to in proj.db. Or is it because of the area_of_use, which is far bigger than the grid extend? Or the missing accuracy? - Sarching for ballpark I found this issue #34983[1] but can't really say that I understand the comments. [1] https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/34983 Btw, certainly you are absolutely right regarding the publication with PROJ and registration of our gsb-file and therefore I contacted the authors for the nessesary informations...
