Hello All!
I have a little dilemma, we inherited field verified data sets, and the data was collected using a World Coordinate System rather than a state plane that we've been using in our GIS. I want to be able to run topology rules but I am unable to because of the field verified datasets having a different GCS than the data I've been working with.
Is there any way that the coordinate system and projections of the field verified data can be changed to what I've been using? My hope is that I can change the projection and GCS of the field verified data to match the correct GCS I've been using without moving the data points.
I have tried just changing the projection using Define Projection but that moves the points.
I have been working with this GCS and projection:
Projected Coordinate System: NAD_1983_StatePlane_Pennsylvania_South_FIPS_3702_Feet
Projection: Lambert_Conformal_Conic
False_Easting: 1968500.00000000
False_Northing: 0.00000000
Central_Meridian: -77.75000000
Standard_Parallel_1: 39.93333333
Standard_Parallel_2: 40.96666667
Latitude_Of_Origin: 39.33333333
Linear Unit: Foot_US
Geographic Coordinate System: GCS_North_American_1983
Datum: D_North_American_1983
Prime Meridian: Greenwich
Angular Unit: Degree
And this is what the data was collected with:
Projected Coordinate System: WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere
Projection: Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere
False_Easting: 0.00000000
False_Northing: 0.00000000
Central_Meridian: 0.00000000
Standard_Parallel_1: 0.00000000
Auxiliary_Sphere_Type: 0.00000000
Linear Unit: Meter
Geographic Coordinate System: GCS_WGS_1984
Datum: D_WGS_1984
Prime Meridian: Greenwich
Angular Unit: Degree
Any and all help is appreciated!
