The Eye4Software Coordinate Calculator is a standalone Windows tool designed to transform geographic coordinates between various geodetic datums and coordinate systems. It is commonly used for converting single points or processing large batches of data from external files. Key Capabilities
Coordinate Transformations: Performs conversions between geographic (latitude/longitude) and projected coordinate systems (e.g., UTM).
Batch Processing: Allows you to convert multiple coordinates at once by reading from comma-separated (.csv) files, databases, or ESRI shapefiles.
Massive Database: Ships with an MS Access database containing over 3,500 ellipsoid, map datum, and map grid definitions worldwide, often identified by their EPSG codes.
Customization: Users can modify existing definitions or create their own custom datums and reference ellipsoids if a specific system is missing from the database. How to Convert Coordinates
Select Source & Target: Define the “Input” and “Output” systems (e.g., converting from WGS84 to a local grid like NAD83).
Single Conversion: Manually enter the coordinates into the graphical interface to get an immediate result. Batch Conversion:
Load a file containing your coordinates (CSV, DBF, or Shapefile). Map the input columns to the correct coordinate fields.
Run the calculator to generate a new file with the converted values. Supported Map Projections
The software supports a wide range of projections, including:
Transverse Mercator and Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM). Lambert Conformal Conic (1SP and 2SP). Polar Stereographic and Oblique Stereographic. Albers Equal Area Conic, Cassini, and Mollweide.
Specialized grids like Gauss Kruger, Krovak, and NADCON/HARN for North America.
