Description |
Earth's Radius |
Radius of Earth used for curvature and refraction, and height corrections. |
Default Height |
The height assigned to two dimensional vertices when a height is required for display and height correction. |
Default Geoid Undulation |
Default geoid/ellipsoid separation. A negative value indicates the geoid is below the ellipsoid. |
Ground Scale |
Description |
Use combined scale factor |
Combined Scale Factor is applied when checked. |
Combined Scale Factor |
Factor replacing point scale factor and height correction. |
Point Scale Factor |
Factor used to calculate ground distances. |
|
Notes |
- Some Earth's constants are only available for Plane coordinate systems.
- The Default Geoid Undulation is used when:
- An imported DBX job file or HEXML job file references a geoid model that cannot be located during the import process.
- An imported file does not reference a geoid model and a geoid model is not configured for the projects coordinate system.
