Open a non-earth map?

Question

I am importing a point featureclass, layer which are non-earth (e.g. local project coordinates)

How would i create a map with non-earth coord system ?

currently i'm using :

Map map = null;
 await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
 {
 map = MapFactory.Instance.CreateMap(mapName, MapType.Map, MapViewingMode.Map, Basemap.None);
 });
 await ProApp.Panes.CreateMapPaneAsync(map);

If you're interested, drop me an email (mkennedy at esri dot com) and I can send you a document that discusses working with local coordinate systems.

And no my code works fine, but by default the map seems to be set to WGS84

Thanks Melita,

No, sometimes we need to work with customer data which is on an arbitrary

local project coordinate system and has not been tied in to an earth

spatial ref.

So we would be looking to open a map that accepts arbitrary rectangular 2d

coords.

Obviously we would expect to be able to project data on other coordinate

systems into this map.
