[Geomoose-users] Setting projection in GeoMoose

[Jim Dahl]

Thanks, Scott.  This was so easy so thanks to the documentation editors
and a red face to me for not finding it.  I think for newcomers it seems
difficult to find the right information because it all seems a bit
overwhelming.  When I performed the search, which is great to highlight
the searched for term, the Projection or Coodinate
 
(var MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM = '<UTM-zone|MNCOUNTY-COUNTYNAME>'; Sets the
coordinate system used when calculating geographic coordinates
(Lat/Long) displayed in the footer. Currently, only two coordinate
systems are supported. The demo default is UTM zone 15. NOTE: This does
not pertain to the projection of your map layers.)
 
didn't highlight for me so I must have missed it.
 
Jim

	Hi Jim,
	
	In the configuration.js, you need to set MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM =
MNCOUNTY-DOUGLAS. That should support what you need... " to display the
lat-lon coordinates in the status bar and for passing lat-lon
information into a service." 
	
	

	Excerpt from the configuration.js reference guide:

	var MAP_COORDINATE_SYSTEM = '<UTM-zone|MNCOUNTY-COUNTYNAME>';

	Sets the coordinate system used when calculating geographic
coordinates (Lat/Long) displayed in the footer. Currently, only two
coordinate systems are supported. The demo default is UTM zone 15. NOTE:
This does not pertain to the projection of your map layers.
	

	*	UTM Specify as UTM-<zone>, for example UTM-15. 
	*	Minnesota County Coordinates Specify as MNCOUNTY-<county
name>, for example MNCOUNTY-RAMSEY.

	-Scott Oatley

<http://www.geomoose.org:88/moose/documentation/how-tos/how-to-add-your-

interface to use County Projected data.  I see the MN county projections
are in the lib js file and the projection/MNcounty js file.  So that
must leave the configuration js file where there is just one reference
to UTM-15.  Is this something that is quick to do?
