Subject: RE: GISList: Shapefiles shift, geographic analysis or data inter- conversion cause data loss
Date:  08/18/2003 06:30:01 AM
From:  Shyam Sunder Pasumarthi



Hi,

PC Arc Info is single precision and remaining all other products are double
precision. If you use Auto Cad 2k, NT Arc Info and Arc View then there
should not be any shift in the data.
