You should be able to use Get Map Data with existing scenes that already have a coordinate system set.  The data downloaded will be converted to the coordinate system of the existing scene.

There is a limit on the extent of the downloadable data though.  The data you want to download needs to be within a radius (maybe approximately 500km?... just guessing on the exact number) of the content in the existing scene.  In 2017.0 and I think in 2016.1, there is an error message at the top if you try to select a region that is outside the downloadable extent, and the OK button is grayed out, but I don't think 2016.0 displays this message:  "Selected region is out of bounds of current coordinate system. Open an empty scene or a scene with a fitting coordinate system."

Of course, you can start with a new scene, and then Get Map Data will download data into the scene and set the coordinate system to UTM.

morrisonb, geoinformacao, achipman_crec If you could tell me exactly what coordinate system you are using, where your existing data is in that coordinate system (camera icon in top right corner of viewport -> Information Display -> look at coordinates), and the location of the data you want to download in Get Map Data, then I can try to reproduce the problem, and maybe there is a bug.  Or, if you are able to post a scene and let me know the extent of your desired data download, that would also help.

Thank you, geoinformacao, for your information.  It looks like this is a bug, so thanks for helping us find it.

Hello, Do you know if this bug is back?  I am having the same issue. Using 2019.1 version.  Online connection ok.  Get map data feature is not working regardless of whether the scene has a coordinate system assigned. getmapdatafeaturenotworking
