<strong>Global</strong> <strong>Map</strong>per User's Manual<br />

The Planar Units pull-down select the ground units to use with the projection.<br />

The Zone selection allows you to select the zone for use with the UTM, State Plane, Gauss Krueger, and<br />

other zoned projections.<br />

For those projections that require additional parameters to fully define them, the Attributes table allows you to<br />

enter the values for each applicable parameter.<br />

You can save the currently selected projection to a PRJ file using the Save to File button. Previously saved<br />

PRJ files can be loaded using the Load from File button. By default, the PRJ file will be saved in the newer<br />

WKT (well-known-text) format used by most products. There is an Advanced Option on the General tab of<br />

the Configuration dialog allowing the older ESRI PRJ format to be exported instead if you would like. If for<br />

some reason a WKT-representation of the projection cannot be generated, the old ESRI PRJ format will be<br />

written out instead.<br />

The Init From EPSG button allows you to initialize a projection definition based on a numeric EPSG<br />

projected coordinate system definition. There are numerous built-in EPSG code definitions, but by no means<br />

is there an exhaustive set. You can add your own EPSG code definitions (or modify built-in ones) by<br />

modifying the epsg_codes.txt file installed in your <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Map</strong>per installation folder. The format is described<br />

in the file header. You must re-start <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Map</strong>per after changing this file for the changes to have any effect.<br />
