Learn to use MapInfo program to move

from one coordinate system to another
Make the transition from the coordinate system SK-42 to WGS-84

in this program, because it’s so convenient and simple for

those who have just started doing geodetic calculations and also has the necessary functionality for this.

of the program, but a component responsible for the transition

from one coordinate system to another, it is also possible to create your own coordinate system.

In the right picture the raster looks like paper that has lain in a cone shape for a long time and turned back.

Coordinates in a global coordinate system (WGS-84), indicated in degrees

We know that Novosibirsk is located in the northern hemisphere and east longitude. Therefore, the values are positive

that there was not enough material on the Internet about

the transition from one coordinate system to another, the obtained technique would allow to accelerate this process.
Nowadays, translation from one coordinate system to another cannot occur manually. MapInfo program allows you to reduce the processing time of coordinates and allows you to transfer rasters from one system to another, without any extra time. There is one drawback of this program - the lack of ease of translation and the need to substitute translation parameters.
In the process, the two most used coordinate systems in Russia were studied. Gradually becoming old SK-42 and used around the world WGS-84.
