barefootbob Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Two Questions: 1) can i import shape files into the same .dwg file using two separate coordinate systems? ie: WGS 1984 (LL84) while the majority of my data is on the IL83 coordinates? 2) Once the 'draping' of my files have been placed over the ariel image file for the terrain, can I use map to do a 'flyover type animation' or would I have to move on to something more complex such as Max? Thank you. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph_map Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 1. Yes, as long as you assign the coordinates to the shp files when you import them and/or have the .prj files. 2. Yes, however the results may vary and not be very smooth. A lot depnds on the graphic drivers, ram, etc of the workstation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emigrato Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 and/or have the .prj files In my old-school Map2006, unfortunately no .PRJ file is "seen" during the _MAPIMPORT on-the-fly transformation, so I gotta load the CRS manually: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
