[jump-users] Projection Support?

[Jonathan Aquino]

Hi Corey -- Yes and no. JUMP's coordinate-system/reprojection support is lying dormant in the code and is not yet exposed to the user. (There's a plug-in called eziLink that is using it). Part of the reason is because only a couple of coordinate systems are implemented: BC Albers and UTM. If you want to consider implementing your own coordinate systems, look at the code for the CoordinateSystem class and related classes.
