Output Coordinate System Changes from v4.5.6 to v4.64?

I recently updated from 4.5.6 to 4.6.4 and noticed that the output coordinate system is now labeled US survey foot in the quality report when it had previously been labeled ft.

I reprocessed a job from October being sure to use the same Image Coordinate System (WGS 84) and the same GCP and Output Coordinate System (NAD_1983_StatePlane_Arizona_Central_FIPS_0202_Feet). The quality report from 4.5.6 reports units in ft (I believe International Foot) while the quality report from 4.6.4 reports units in US survey foot.

Has anybody else noticed a similar behavior after upgrading to 4.6.4?

Hi @mike3 ,

Could you please upload here those two Quality Reports?

The NAD 1983 StatePlane Arizona Central FIPS 0202 Feet is in the U.S. survey foot.

Best regards,

Hi @Beata,

Here are the 2 quality reports. I look forward to hearing your input.

Thank you for your patience.

The reason for such change, according to our developers, is the coordinate system update.

However, the change in the unit was not done by our team. We load the coordinate system from the spacial reference repository.

It had to be them that re-uploaded a new .prj file for the NAD 1983 StatePlane Arizona Central FIPS 0202 Feet coordinate system in the U.S. survey foot.

Let me know if you have other questions.
