The false easting/false northing values must be in the same unit so if you compare the int'l ft and US survey ft definitions, you should see slightly different numbers.</P><P></P><P>Melita</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 09 Apr 2019 17:35:55 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/coordinate-question/m-p/496181#M28174 MelitaKennedy 2019-04-09T17:35:55Z Re: Coordinate question https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/coordinate-question/m-p/496182#M28175 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you Melita,&nbsp;this answers my question.</P><P>Best Regards,</P><P>Jim</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 09 Apr 2019 17:42:33 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/coordinate-question/m-p/496182#M28175 JimCousins 2019-04-09T17:42:33Z
