Description of the Shift, Rotate & Scale methods
Shift, Rotate & Scale
methods
Description
Manually entered Applies shifts and/or rotation and/or scale to one or several known
points. The values for shifts and/or rotation and/or scale are typed
in manually.
Elements that must be known are
• the coordinates of the points to be shifted, rotated and/or
scaled. They must be stored in the working job.
• the shift values. They can be defined as: the direction of
Easting, Northing and Height, or as an azimuth and a grid
distance, or as shift from one point to another.
• the rotation value. It can be defined by a point as rotation
centre plus a rotation or by an existing and new azimuth.
• the scale. It is only applied to the position, not to the height.
Points with full coordinate triplets, position only points and height
only points can be used.
