Wisconsin County Coordinate System Workaround

I thought this response from Bentley would be helpful for others using the Wisconsin County Coordinate System.

We have identified several areas within the Wisconsin County Coordinate Systems that are wrong.  Defects and Enhancements have been filed against these issues and will be evaluated for inclusion in a future MicroStation update.

  The classification of the systems is incorrect. 

  • The WISCRS are provided, but in the wrong place
  • The geoid separation for the WCCS system is provided in meters regardless of units of GCS
  • NSRS11 Variations of the WISCRS County System are missing

  Please have a look at this guidance from the Development staff to see if it will provide a workaround until the issues can be corrected: The WISCRS county system are provided:

 But were wrongfully placed in the LEGACY section in Projected/Legacy/North America/United States of America/Wisconsin/SCRS County System

 These will be relocated

 (likely to  Projected/North America/United States of America/Wisconsin/Wisconsin County System/WISCRS (New system)/HARN/)
