Enter the local ground coordinates for the

origin. This will be the local plane coordinate

of the Origin Point. It is recommended that you
use a recognizably different coordinate range to

distinguish the values from the grid
coordinates. For example, a UTM coordinate of

(4,997,000, 356,000) could become (5000,5000).

subtracted from the scaled grid coordinate of

your origin point to get the ground offsets.

database northing and easting coordinates with the ground
coordinate system transformation and return you to the Job > Settings
> Surveying screen where you must tap to save your settings.

Factor settings will start as soon as the New

Job wizard finishes. This setting is always
unchecked by default.
