<p>Hello:</p>
<p>Based on the comments in the link below, you can leave them in
the ..\proj folder. This is a default and if you want a Canada
sub folder, you will have to adjust the path.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My team provides QGIS Desktop to our
organization using the standalone-installer, on Windows 11. We
are rolling out v3.40.6 now.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It has come to our attention that we
probably need to include some extra datum transformation files
for Canada.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I need to know WHERE these files / this
folder should be placed for QGIS to access them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have a folder called “canada”, and it
contains .gsb and .gtx files.<br>
Do we put this folder at this location: C:\Program Files\QGIS
3.40.6\share\proj\canada?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If not, can anyone let us know how to
ensure these datum transformation files are included in our
qgis installation?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,<o:p></o:p></p>
