Dear all,
I’m trying to use Tomas Bayer’s SW (W7 32 and
64 bit), but I don’t know how to launch it. When I launch
the program, nothing happen.
Is there anyone that had my same troubles?
Best regards
Piero

I am studying some early nineteenth
century maps by Aaron Arrowsmith that show projection
grids (graticules), but do not state what projection
was used. I was wondering if someone has developed
software to ascertain map projections based on the
lines of the grid. I would think that it would be
fairly easy to develop something like this, but have
not been able to turn up anything via Google. Any
leads?
