ProjectDataFile

The ProjectDataFile method reprojects coordinates in data files.

Syntax

object.ProjectDataFile( InputDataFilePath, xCol, yCol, OutputDataFilePath, pInputProjection, pOutputProjection, ApplyDatum )

Parameter	Type	Description
InputDataFilePath	String	required; input path
xCol	Integer	required; column containing X coordinates, column A equals 1
yCol	Integer	required; column containing Y coordinates, column A equals 1
OutputDataFilePath	String	required; output path
pInputProjection	Projection	required; input Projection object
pOutputProjection	Projection	required; output Projection object
ApplyDatum	Boolean	required; true to apply datum conversion

Example

'ProjectDataFile

Set source = Plot.CreateProjectionObject

source.DatumType = mvDatum_World_Geodetic_System_1984

source.ProjectionType = mvProjNone

Set destination = Plot.CreateProjectionObject

destination.ProjectionType = mvProjUTM

'Reproject the USCity.dat file (in WGS 1984) to something else

Plot.ProjectDataFile(InputDataFilePath:=mvApp.ModuleFolder + "\Samples\uscity.dat", _

XCol:=3, YCol:=4, _

OutputDataFilePath:=mvApp.ModuleFolder + "\Samples\uscity_reprojected.dat", _

pInputProjection:= source, _

pOutputProjection:= destination, _

ApplyDatum:= True)

'Delete projections when finished

source.Delete

destination.Delete
