Datum Specification In Cross Section Viewer #55

Open GeneSpangrude opened 4 years ago

GeneSpangrude commented 4 years ago

Request that 'Datums' may be specified by individual survey within the Cross Section Viewer. Several surveys for the same River Reach were done in '27/29 Datum' and several in '83/88' Datum.

I like this idea. Perhaps to reduce disruption we could continue to have a "default datum" associated with each database, but then allow each individual survey to override this default if it uses a different datum.

@GeneSpangrude not that there is a vertical shift tool within the software that permanently adjusts all the data for a particular survey up and down. It uses inflection points but it would be easy to specify one upstream and downstream of all the cross sections with a constant value to perform a linear shift.
