<p>A related question, what about grid to ground conversions and
vice-versa, are there plugins which support this? Surveys here in
Canada always specify a "combined scale factor", which is tedious to
apply manually to each vertex when digitizing.<br></p></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Gid to ground is a scale factor. So you can enter everything with the given bearings and distances, then when you're done, use the "Scale Feature" tool. To do that correctly you need to know the point where the combined factor is applied. Hold the control key while clicking that point and then enter the combined factor in the box in the upper right corner. If you don't know the point where the combined factor is calculated, pick a point near the center of your feature(s), not the origin of the coordinate system (0, 0). </div></div><div><br></div><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Richard W.
