This webinar, hosted by That CAD Girl and presented by Carlson Software’s Doug Oberg, explores the fundamentals of coordinate systems used in surveying and CAD workflows. It covers ellipsoids, geoids, datums, scale factors, and Carlson tools for managing grid‑to‑ground conversions and projections.
Key Topics:
- Coordinate system fundamentals (ellipsoid, geoid, state plane, grid vs. ground)
- Scale factors and combined scale factor calculations
- Carlson Software tools for coordinate management and projection setup
- Upcoming datum and unit changes (NAD 2022, low‑distortion projections, U.S. survey foot retirement)
- Practical applications for surveyors using GPS, RTK, and CAD integration
