<div dir="ltr">Hi Andreas,<br><br>Some time ago, I wrote a text (in the QGIS portuguese user group blog) about the use of coordinate transformations and NTv2 grids in QGIS.

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am struggling in QGIS 2x with datum transformations.</p>
<p>The manual is not explicit how to handle this correctly.</p>
<p>Here are the steps I tried:</p>
<p>1. As far as I understand, I have to copy the gsb file to the directory where proj stores the gsb files, in my case "C:\Program Files\OSGeo4W64\share\proj". Alternatively, one could set another folder and adjust the PROJ_LIB env variable accordingly.</p>
<p>2. In "Settings" --> "Options" --> "CRS" I can define default datum transformations. I tried to enter 21781 (Source CRS), 2056 (Destination CRS), +nadgrids=CHENYX06a.gsb (Source datum transfomation). Destionation datum has been left empty.</p>
<p>3. I would expect that whenever this combination 21781 --> 2056 shows up that QGIS would ask me to pick one the defaults specified in 2.</p>
<p>The problem is that 2. does not work. When I close the dialogue and reopen it, my modifications are gone ... and I never have the chance to select my datum transformation option.</p>
<p>Can you help me what I am doing things wrong?</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
<p>Andreas</p>
