Andy, run a quick inverse for me

> I didn't yet. I know where your still is but I don't know where my project is yet. Scurry County is all so far. A little northeast of Snyder.

LOL! You look like a surveyor that just lost his project!

Couldn't resist. 🙂

That's going to take more than one setup to get there I think.

FWIW, I am compiling record data to assist with the survey scheduled for tomorrow. We will have some good coords once we have actually found some corners and GPS it in. In the meantime I have to go meet the crew, so I will be in the field for a bit. If anyone has an idea of why my files are coming in as Lat & Longs instead of converting to state plane coords, I would be appreciative.

I'd just use Global Mapper to reproject the mother trucker.

When you unzipped the data from the

TNRIS site, did you extract the projection file to the same sub-directory as your shape file?

For some reason which I haven't narrowed down, some software I use it will not matter if the projection file is available once, but it will matter the next time.

I will check the projection file. I assume that since it is suggesting LL27 (which is the normal coord system for these files) that it is reading the data file correctly.
