<div dir="ltr">Hi Grant - good question. Looks like a similar question came up on Stack Exchange last spring. Does it sound like this answer works for you? <a href="http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/187699/how-to-create-a-qgis-map-of-unprojected-data">http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/187699/how-to-create-a-qgis-map-of-unprojected-data</a> <div><br></div><div>(Ultimately the suggestion is to assign it to a UTM or foot based coordinate system, as that should work fine for display and such - if you find out there is a real Geographic coordinate system later, you can just assign as appropriate).</div><div><br></div><div>If not, curious to hear more about the specific case you're dealing with.</div><div>mike<br><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 16, 2017 at 9:10 PM, Grant Boxer <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:boxerg@iinet.net.au" target="_blank">boxerg@iinet.net.au</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-AU" link="#0563C1" vlink="#954F72"><div class="m_1188799351524425552WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal">Is there an option in QGIS to select a non-earth coordinate system? This is useful when you get data in a local grid without a readily available conversion to real earth coordinates. There is this option in MapInfo and it is really handy when dealing with old data. The “local grid” can then be transformed later when a conversion can be determined.<u></u><u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span>Grant Boxer<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span>Perth, Western Australia<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div></div><br>______________________________<wbr>_________________<br>
