We have a Trimble GPS unit we use to collect equipmentsystem assets.

We collect the data in WGS84 and differentially correct it, and then reproject it to a state plan coordinate systeminto our State Plane Coordinate System.

The resulting points always shift the same distance in the same direction after the reprojection.

What is the reason forAny idea what could cause this?

Thanks.

Why do points shift when reprojected from WGS84 to a state plane coordinate?
