Nice. Our Belgian friends seem to have changed their national<br>
projection. I don't understand this page (Dutch:<br>
<a href="http://www.ngi.be/FR/FR4-4.shtm" target="_blank">http://www.ngi.be/FR/FR4-4.shtm</a>; French:<br>
<a href="http://www.ngi.be/FR/FR2-1-7.shtm" target="_blank">http://www.ngi.be/FR/FR2-1-7.shtm</a>, no English need apply). It says:<br>
<br>
"Due to the too small deviation (1 kilometer) between the coordinates of<br>
the Lambert 1972 projection and those of the Lambert 2005 projection,<br>
the NGI has changed the parameters of the Lambert 2005 projection, and<br>
created the Lambert 2008 projection".<br>
<br>
What they did was just adding 499.000 to both x and y coordinates of<br>
Lambert 2005.<br>
<br>
Lambert 1972 is the projection as defined in PROJ's epsg file (nr<br>
31370), derived from the EPSG database (coordinate reference nr 411).<br>
Its datum is intl (=Hayford). First standard parallel is 51.166667,<br>
second standard parallel 49.833333, central parallel 90 (?), central<br>
meridian 4.367486666. x_0 = 150000.01256, y_0 = 5400088.4378<br>
<br>
Lambert 2005, as defined on the above page (nothing in the EPSG<br>
database): datum GRS80 (=WGS84, approximately). First standard parallel<br>
51.166667, second standard parallel 49.833333, central parallel<br>
50.7977777, central meridian 4.35916666666. x_0 = 150328, y_0 = 166262<br>
<br>
Lambert 2008 is Lambert 2005 Hi,with 499 km added to both x and y coordinates<br>
<br>
So, without additional information, I really don't see the relationship<br>
between the 1972, 2005 and 2008 systems. What's the difference between<br>
1972 and 2005, and why did they add 500 km in 2008? Did they change each<br>
and every coordinate on each and every Belgian map in 2005 and are they<br>
changing it again in 2008? Has anyone ever seen a Lambert 2005<br>
coordinate? They are not in the EPSG database.<br>
<br>
If anyone can make sense of this gobbledygook, I would be happy to know.<br>
