Hello Everyone,

Thanks in advance for any help.

We are looking at "reverse geocoding" locations captured on a mobile device. Our problem is that the mobile device captures data in WGS84 and our address locator used to publish a geocoding service is in state plane - nad83.

Is there any way to change the spatial reference of the address locator without changing the geographic data its based on?

There is an option to change the OUTPUT spatial reference, but we really need to change the spatial reference so that it accepts WGS84.

We would like try this approach if at possible. If not, we are also looking at reprojecting the data captured on the mobile app.

Thanks again - Shaun

I'm battling with wgs84 as well.  I guess its the cool thing now.   Projecting is easy; thats what I'd do.  I've got a couple recent posts that discuss transformations; they should be easy to find.

That should just about do it....
