NAVREF

NAVREF is a program for the transformation of global WGS84-coordinates in Swiss projected coordinates LV03 and vice versa.

NAVREF

This program is not designed for high-precision applications, but for navigation as well as for the transformation of coordinates that are derived from a geodetic data portal on the Internet, from a software like Google Maps or have been extracted from maps.
NAVREF doesn't allow any height transformation (except the ellipsoidal transformation) and allows interactive calculations only pointwise.

For PocketPC, a free mobile version is available:

  • NAVFREF mobile

For the transformation of precise coordinates and the processing of large data volumes in batch
operation, we offer the product REFRAME.
