Subject: GISList: Regional GIS
Date:  06/09/2003 06:05:01 PM
From:  epoulsen



Hello all!

I am looking for some ideas on projections for a regional system. I am
looking to develop a regional data set that would encompass several states
in the North East. I'd like to have the data from the states operate as
seamless layers. I understand that the majority of governmental agencies
prefer the state plane coordinate system for state data, but this will not
work for seamless layers. I am leaning towards using UTM and while the
states are located within 3, I am leaning to using the zone in the center
which encompasses the vast majority of the area.

I was looking for your thoughts and especially any other examples of
regional systems over several states and how the projection issue was
handled.

Thank you!
