Abstract

Transformations between the Various Geodetic Datums of Hawaii
Track: Plan
Authors: Sarah Falzarano

Within the State of Hawaii, it is common to use GIS data that spans the use of multiple geodetic datums. In order to assure that data lines up with each other as precisely and accurately as possible, transformations between the different realizations must be applied correctly. With the introduction of a new realization for the NAD83 datum for Hawaii, NAD83 PA11, the transformations in ArcGIS were revisited, requests to ESRI were made for improvements, and a cheat sheet was developed for users.
