[Proj] WGS84 Lat Lon to XYZ convercion

[support.mn at elisanet.fi]

Hello,

It is not totally clear, what is the problem? That is how lat/lon projection works: it takes the lat and long coordinates and converts them directly to X and Y, your results are totally ok??

If you want to shift your local coordinates to WGS84 and then project them to lat/lon X-Y; you should tell the proj-4, that your coordinates are not in WGS84. In that case you will have 2 datums: the source datum, which is your local datum and that is shifted from WGS84; and the destination datum, which is the same as the WGS84. Then you first call the pj_transform() to do the datum conversion between those two datums and then you do the projection to lat/lon projection calling pj_fwd() in the destination datum and projection.

Regards: Janne.
