TRANSDATpro is a coordinate converter that performs Coordinate Transformations and Reference System Transitions (Datum Shift) fast and with high accuracy. The geodetic program supports worldwide thousands of Coordinate Systems, geodetic Reference Systems and Datum Shifts, user-defined systems, 2D/3D transformations, INSPIRE, NTv2, HARN, EPSG, GPS, continental drift and more. The coordinate converter reads and writes the file formats Text, CSV, SDF, dBase, ArcShape, ArcGenerate, KML, GPX and others. Furthermore: Outdoor GPS reception, mapping in Google Earth, Google Maps and OpenStreetMap, Meridian Convergence and Extra Parameter, Polygonal scopes in NTv2 files, multilingual user interface.
Accurate geodetic Coordinate Transformations for your Geodata
Since 1993 KilletSoft's TRANSDATpro has been the coordinate conversion tool of first choice for GIS professionals, land surveyors and geodesists around the world. TRANSDATpro continuously gained in popularity since then and has maintained its reputation as one of the best coordinate conversion tools on the market. TRANSDATpro offers many additional geomatics tools such as 2D / 3D geodetic transformations, NTv2 and HARN grid shifts, GPS receiver module, consideration of continental drift, INSPIRE and EPSG support, and the ability to use custom best fit transformation parameters. TRANSDATpro has grown with many improvements over the years and it continuously benefits from user feedback. Thanks to the numerous improvement suggestions of the users the quality and the scope of functions of the program increase constantly.
Supported Coordinate Systems and Reference Systems (datum shifts)
Besides the usual Geographic Information Systems (GIS), there is a wide variety of geodetic applications and data collections that are used for the acquisition, processing and presentation of spatial data. The thereby used spatial data are available in many different coordinate systems and reference systems (CRS). Here the program TRANSDATpro is needed to transform the spatial data of different data sources and data structures from one coordinate reference system (CRS) to another. TRANSDATpro has been developed on the basis of the link_in Geodetic Development Kit GeoDLL, which allows to embed geodetic calculations in own computer programs.
TRANSDATpro is a professional computer program for Geodetic Coordinate Transformations between national and country-specific Coordinate and Reference Systems with high precision and good performance:
- The current and historical Systems of all countries of Europe
- The European ETRS89 systems forced by INSPIRE
- The US and Canadian NAD, NTv2, HARN and SPCS Coordinate Reference Systems
- The Coordinate Reference Systems of most countries of all continents
- The Coordinate Reference Systems of Germany, Austria and Switzerland incl. NTv2
- The Geographic coordinates in different notations and Cartesian coordinates
- Worldwide NTv2 grid file supported Coordinate Transformations
- Worldwide used numeric and alphanumeric Coordinate Systems
- Most of EPSG supported Coordinate Reference Systems
- ITRS annual realizations or WGS84 epochs for GPS measurements
- WGS84 Coordinate Transformations in consideration of the continental drift
- User defined Coordinate Systems, Reference Systems and earth ellipsoids
- Meridian Convergence, Origin Center Meridian, Geographical Point Coordinates
In some countries, here link_in Germany as an example, the there available Coordinate Reference System are broken down in more groups:
- The Coordinate Reference Systems of the old and new German Federal States
- The German 'Lagestatus' Coordinate Reference Systems
- The high-precision Reference Systems of the German Federal States incl. NTv2
- The 40 Soldner Coordinate Systems of the Prussian Land Registers
TRANSDATpro supports all by the INSPIRE directive prescribed ETRS89 conversions with NTv2 grid data, e.g. Gauss-Kruger / DHDN to UTM / ETRS89 with BeTA2007. The NTv2 standard with national grid files is worldwide full supported. The use of EPSG codes for the Coordinate Reference Systems is possible. Apart from the given worldwide and state-specific systems, your own personal Coordinate Systems and geodetic Reference Systems can be defined with Helmert (Bursa / Wolf, ISO19111) or Molodensky Parameters. Calculations can be performed with coordinates entered directly, loaded from files in various formats (Text, CSV, SDF, dBase, KML, GPX, ArcShape and ArcGenerate), or passed via batch processing. ArcShape files can be viewed with the program-internal Shape Viewer. A programmable GPS interface makes it possible to read coordinates into a notebook computer from a low-cost GPS antenna.
The program has a user-selectable multi language interface and comes with extensive online help. The program can be run on most common networks and it is possible to use Terminal Services on WINDOWS Servers. In case of a network installation the clients are installed automatically by the program.
