Hi,<br>
<br>
I think the grids of the major countries should be included in QGIS
core. E.g. the german gsb file is only 87 kb. This could easily be
distributed with QGIS core.<br>
<br>
It is the duty of the local QGIS user groups to come up with a
solution for their users - either by bundling it in QGIS core or
through a plugin or good tutorial.<br>
<br>
It would make the life much easier for the average user.<br>

<div>Hi Bernd,</div>

<div>Here [0] we have an explanation of how the coordinate
systems works in general, and in particular in QGIS. You also
find solutions to use the NTv2 grids with QGIS. Unfortunately,
the text is in portuguese, but perhaps Google Translate can
help [1].</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is a way that each user must do individually. To make
life easier for portuguese users, as we also have a lot of
information that needs to be transformed to ETRS89, portuguese
QGIS User Group developed the plugin that Giovanni told you
[2], which greatly simplifies things, because it is integrated
into Processing Toolbox and already provides the NTv2 grids.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As Giovanni said, if there is interest from other countries
and if we can freely redistribute the NTv2 grids, we can
expand the plugin.</div>
