Hi
I need to define a new coordinate system to add to the Geographic Coordinate systems.
There is no problem in defining the projection, which just another Transvers Mercator, the problem is that I need to define a new Datum
How do I do that ?. As far as I can see I can only chose among the allready defined datums. Are there a possibility for adding a new datum ??
Why do I need a new Datum! Because the Fixed Link across the Fehmarn Belt between Denmark and Germany has decided to use ITRF2005 as Datum for it project coordinate system. And since ETRS89 differs around 20 centimeters from ITRF2005, we need to have a simple datum transformation between these two datums allthough they both are 'WGS84' datums
Thanks

Erik,
The functionality for adding new datums will be added in the next scheduled release of MicroStation (MicroStation v8i SS3) which is scheduled for sometime in 2011.
I can also add this datum as part of the pre-defined datums for the release. Can you provide the necessary documentation (hopefully an official government link) for this datum definition please?

I would love to have the latest projections for Illinois included in ustation. Where do I send the data or how do I create them?
