The NA.4- datum has three independent reali?ations in "A#N$T %ield with respect to the B#S4+ datum= NA.4-, NA.4-;ITR%71< and NA.4-fN*fTRANS to reflect the updates to these datums. The original intent was for B#S4+ and NA.4- to be identical. The mathematical definition of the ellipsoids ;B#S4+ and #RS48< differs slightly due to the choice of defining constants and number of significant figures. The ma imum discrepancy between a !artesian A,I,E coordinate pro@ected onto both ellipsoids is 8.& mm at +/ degrees latitude. So consider the ellipsoids to be identical. There is some confusion between the B#S4+ and NA.4- datums. Bhen NA.4- was first reali?ed in &741, it used the same control stations as B#S4+, some of which were .oppler stations, which were accurate to about one meter. !onsider the datums to be identical. Since this time, there have been several reali?ations of B#S4+, the latest being B#S4+ ;#&&/8<, which was performed using data from I#S trac5ing stations collected during #PS Bee5 &&/8. Recent studies have shown that B#S4+ ;#&&/8< is essentially identical to the International Terrestrial Reference %rame of (888 ;ITR%88<. Also, during this time there have been no new reali?ations of NA.4-. Bhat this means is that B#S4+ and NA.4- can no longer be considered identical and are in fact different by more than one meter. This is because the B#S4+ datum has been updated over time, using #PS while the NA.4- datum has remained constant since &741. )owever, most software manufacturers still consider B#S4+ to be identical with NA.4-. To be compatible with other manufacturers, Topcon provides transformation parameters from B#S4+ to NA.4- where all the parameters are ?ero. This means B#S4+ eOuals NA.4-. This set of datum transformation parameters is called NA.4- NofTrans.

Topcon also provides another set of datum transformation parameters called NA.4- which reflects the updates to B#S4+. These parameters are ta5en from the National #eodetic Survey. Topcon only uses the first seven parameters, three translations, three rotations, and scale.

9ocali?ation in "A#N$T %ield is a calculation of transforma' tion parameters between B#S4+ and a ground coordinate sys' tem. To perform locali?ation, you need to have two independent sets of coordinates for the same point or few points in the "A#' N$T %ield. An independent set of coordinates is a set of such point coordinates that do not have a relation between each other. To perform locali?ation in "A#N$T %ield, you need to manu' ally select coordinates in the #R*2N. coordinate system ;F6nown PointF< and in the #RI. coordinate system or B#S4+> .AT2" coordinate system ;F"easured PointF< for the same point in the current @ob. Such a point is called 9ocali?ation Point. In "A#N$T %ield, hori?ontal locali?ation and vertical locali?a' tion are performed separately. Iou determine which calculation the 9ocali?ation Point uses by selecting the corresponding chec5 bo es G2se )ori?ontalH and>or G2se CerticalH.

Parameters of transformation from the #rid to #round coordi' nates can be used in #PS sta5e of road points. %or e ample, to sta5e a point at the distance of &88 meters from some point, you have to create a ground coordinate system, which will wor5 as a base coordinate system in #PS sta5e calculation. To do this, se' lect the corresponding #rid and enter the average height of a de' sired portion of the road. The created ground coordinate system enables you to sta5e points at special distances in the grid sys' tem.

If you 5now the coordinates of a point in both coordinate sys' tems ;#rid and #round< and also rotation of these systems, then to find the relation between #rid to #round coordinate systems, select F*rigin PtF from the Parameters list on the #rid>#round Parameters screen. This method calculates an offset vector in the hori?ontal plane between coordinates of a point ;called the origin point< in the grid and ground coordinate systems and compute the ground co' ordinates from the grid coordinates using this offset. If a rotation angle is present between these coordinate systems, "A#N$T %ield can rotate a grid or ground coordinate system relative to this point. Also "A#N$T %ield ta5es into account a scale factor between these coordinate systems. See the plot here. After determining the relation between both coordinate systems, "A#N$T %ield will calculate ground coordinates from the grid coordinate system and vice versa. See an e ample of using this method below.
