The Single Point Conversion dialog allows a user to convert a coordinate (xyz point) between to coordinate systems. This dialog can be accessed from two locations within XMS programs:

  1. Edit menu, Convert Single Coordinate item
  2. Register Image Dialog

The dialog consists of two sides. On the left side, the original (or Convert from) coordinate system is entered. On the right side, the final (or Convert to) coordinate system is entered. The options for the two sides are described on the Coordinate Systems page.

The other items in the dialog include:

  • Enter coordinates – Enter the original (or from) coordinates.
  • New Coordinates – View the final (or to) coordinates.
  • Convert – Perform the conversion.
  • Create Mesh Node/Feature Point – Create a mesh node (if in the mesh module) or a feature point (if in the map module) at the final coordinates when OK is pushed.
