Dear Fernando:
 
What country is this, and what parameters did you use.  I suspect you're in Venezuela ... please confirm.
 
Estan usted en la Republica de Venezuela?  Esta verdad?

Hello,

I'm developed a routine for transforming coordinates of points which are in PSAD56 Zone 18S (srid = 24878) to Wgs84 Zone 18s (srid = 32718)

The items are stored in the fields "geom" the table "MyTable" (srid = 24878).

To perform the operation using the following syntax:


       select Transform (geom, 32718) from MyTable


Reviewing the results found that there is an error:


Example:

Point in Psad56 Zn 18s

        X = 264365.2955 Y = 8665287.3660 Z = 0.0000

The result of the transformation is:

        X = 264366.1196 Y = 8665292.17 Z = 0.0000

However, the same point in cartografia WGS84 Zone 18S has the following coordinates:

        X = 264143.0640 Y = 8664919.0231 Z = 0.0000

Apparently the SRID of the parameters are not properly used or applied incorrectly the function Transform ()

While waiting for your help

Hola

Estoy elaborando una rutina para transformar coordenadas de puntos que estan en PSAD56 Zona 18S (srid=24878) a Wgs84 Zona 18s (srid=32718)

Los puntos estan almacenados en el campo "geom" de la tabla "MyTable" (srid=24878).


Para realizar la operacion estoy usando la siguiente sintaxis:


select Transform(geom,32718) from MyTable

Al revisar los resultados encontre que hay un error :

Ejemplo : 

Punto en Psad56 Zn 18s

X = 264365.2955     Y = 8665287.3660     Z = 0.0000

El resultado de la transformacion es: 

X = 264366.1196     Y = 8665292.17       Z = 0.0000

Sin embargo, el mismo punto en cartografia en WGS84 Zona 18S tiene las siguientes coordenadas:

X = 264143.0640     Y = 8664919.0231     Z = 0.0000

Al parecer los parametros de los SRID usado no estan correctos o estoy aplicando mal la funcion Transform()

A la espera de su ayuda< br>
saludos

Fernando Luyo
