PCTrans
PCTrans is used for geodetic and hydrographic computations.
The program provides many map projections and datum transformations. It transforms geodetic to astronomical coordinates, calculates geodesics and loxodromes. It calculates areas, taking into account Earth curvature. It determines differences between mean sea level and the chart datum, for positions on the Netherlands Continental Shelf and internal waters. Calculation of variation and inclination of the Earth's magnetic field is also possible. All computed coordinates are plotted against a geographic background.
We are interested to know who uses this program, so please fill out the form and the download will start. The Netherlands Hydrographic Service will only use your information to obtain insight in who downloads our products and to respond to possible comments. The information will not be supplied to third parties.
