NAD83(2011) Transverse Mercator
« on: January 10, 2023, 06:42:32 PM »
When I export an orthomosaic to NAD 1983 (2011) State Plane Alabama East ftUS from Metashape 1.8 or 2.0, the results are "incorrectly" exported in Universal Transverse Mercator.     
Alabama uses the Transverse Mercator projection.

When I export an orthomosaic to NAD 1983 (2011) State Plane Tennessee ftUS from Metashape 1.8 or 2.0, the results are "correctly" exported in NAD 1983 (2011) State Plane Tennessee ftUS. 
Tennessee uses the Lambert Conformal Conic projection.

Many State Plane systems use the Transverse Mercator Projection.  When Metashape exports a Transverse Mercator Projection to NAD 1983 (2011) it does not convert correctly.

Hello gdw,

Can you please specify which application or utility you are using to check the projection of the exported raster?

I have tried to export the orthomosaic in AD 1983 (2011) State Plane Alabama East ftUS  coordinate system and several utilities, including listgeo show CT_TransverseMercator in ProjCoordTransGeoKey tag, which seems to be correct.
Best regards,

Thank you for your prompt reply.
