Dear Piero,
the detectproj software is controlled from the command line. Let me
give a short description.
Two files are needed with coordintes of the analyzed points, are required.
The first one, contains the Cartesian coordinates x,y of testing
points, collected on the analyzed map. The second one, containst he
spherical (geographical) coordinates lat, lon of the corresponding
points on the sphere (available from the Google maps). The sufficent
amount of points is approx. 10.
Subsequently, the analysis is performed from the command lines, follow
the link, please
http://web.natur.cuni.cz/~bayertom/detectproj/det_analysis.html
Alternately, a batch file may be created. The software supports 60 map
projections, the estimated parameters are determined using the weighted
non linear least squares adjustment.
If you need any help, feel free to ask me. It is also possible to send
a map, and I would try to perform the analysis. Keep in mind, please,
the software is still under the development. For more information, visit
the webpages, please
