Abstract
Conversion between Austrian and Hungarian map projection systems is
presented here. The conversion may be performed in two steps: first any kind
of map projection systems should be transformed into WGS-84 ellipsoidal
co-ordinates in one country, and then from WGS-84 ellipsoidal co-ordinates
should be transformed into the desired system for the other country. A
computer programme has been developed to carry out all the possible
transformations between the two countries. Using our method and software the
transformation between Austrian and Hungarian map projection systems can be
performed with a few centimeters accuracy for a few ten kilometers range of
common border
