USA Minnesota County Coordinate system issues

In Context Capture (CC) I'm having problems with the Minnesota_St Louis County Central_feet coordinate system. 

Nothing is available stock out of CC for this zone.

I have researched and found a PRJ file with the parameters and brought that into CC. When looking at the parameters in CC they appear to be correct.

Although, something must not be right with formatting or something as my project controls end up in central Africa instead of Northern Minnesota USA when I export a kml out of CC and bring into Google earth.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Most helpful would be PRJ or WKT file in the correct format that works when imported into CC.

Best,

Mike

  • I have successfully created a custom coordinate system for the Select GCS dialog box for Baltimore City in Maryland. I started with a MD State Plane USFeet GCS and changed the false Northing and Easting using data from a PRJ file. When I export to Google Earth, it lines up and if I reference files between this custom GCS and one of the MD State Plane USFeet GCS, as long as I let it do a re-projection, the files line up.
