Add ECEF coordinates

    Hello greetings to all,


    I am new to the group and I would like to ask if it is possible to add and fix geocentric (ECEF) coordinates when a static point is being processed, in my TBC I only find the option to fix Global, grid and local, thanks.

     

    Greetings,

    Jairo

    Hi Jairo,

    I don't think there is an option to "fix" the ECEF coordinates in TBC. May I ask why you would need to operate on the ECEF coordinates? What is the workflow look like? Thank you.

    Hi Rui,
    Generally I use the TBC to process static points, for this I must obtain the updated coordinates of the position weekly from the Sirgas page of the permanent stations (http://www.sirgas.org/es/sirgas-con-network/coordinates/weekly-positions/), these coordinates are presented in geocentric coordinate format and I must convert them to geographic or grid coordinates , to be able to add them to the TBC, for this reason I wanted to know if there was any option to enter them directly into the TBC, so as not to have to carry out such a conversion, thanks.

    Regards,

    Jairo

    Hello Jairo, 

    How are you doing? I found myself in the exact same situation in 2024. 
    Did you find the solution or alternative to this?

    Thank you!

    Hi Jairo,

     

    I guess the easiest way would be through a customized import via Import Format Editor. Data field definition does support ECEF XYZ. Create Point feature indeed doesn't support ECEF XYZ yet.
