Well, that article defines on how to transform from DHG (Deutches Heeres Gitter) Plukovo 1932 to UTM ED50 in zone 34, and that's a start. Question is, is that (DHG Pulkovo 1932) the same as the coordinates we have for the border which is described like this: "Koordinatene er konforme , rettvinklete Gauss-Krugerske, etter Pulkovasystemet av 1932 (Bessels ellipsoide)".?
Which should translate to something like "The Coordinates are conform, orthogonal Gauss-Krugerian, after the Pulkova System of 1932 (Bessel's ellipsoid)" More details in Norwegian in the referenced document ;-) 2008/11/21 Tom Hughes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Erik Johansson wrote: > >> Oooh projection archeology, it's even more fun when you go down to >> local county databases they all have their own projections scheme for >> better fit to the grid.
