Order GeoDLL full versionNTv2 means "National Transformation Version 2". The NTv2 method uses binary files to perform accurate datum shifts from one geodetic reference system to an other. A NTv2 file contains the differences between the two reference systems as geographic seconds in a grid. A bilinear interpolation is used to calculate the exact coordinates for a point in the target reference system.
NTv2 is designed to check multiple grids for the most accurate shift information. A NTv2 file contains a low density base grid (parent). Certain areas such as cities can have high density local sub grids. The sub grids overlay portions of the base grid. If a point is within one of the high density sub grids, NTv2 will use the high density grid, otherwise, the point falls through to the low density grid.
A description of the NTv2 algorithm can be found in the following sources:
NTv2 für Deutschland, 2006.
Here the NTv2 binary files are listed, which are supported by the geodetic Library GeoDLL and the program TRANSDAT.
In the second line always the original source is shown, from which the original NTv2 file can be downloaded and information about the associated geodetic reference systems are given.
In the third line is a link, from which the NTv2 file can be download direct from the KilletSoft server.
It is recommended to use the original NTv2 files from the original sources, because the actuality of the files stored on the KilletSoft server is not guaranteed.
Important note:
If you want to use the here listed NTv2 files, you must necessarily note the terms and conditions of their authors!
All rights and liabilities, resulting from the use of the data, bears solely the user!
KilletSoft does not guarantee the accuracy of the data!

GeoDLL supports 3D coordinate- transformations
After our Dynamic Link Library has become super fast by recoding to C++, GeoDLL now is able to calculate 3D coordinate transformations considering the ellipsoidical heights.
As well calculations with cartesian coordinates are possible now.
