OziExplorer and Rijksdriehoeksmeting

Introduction

OziExplorer is my favorite tool for working with topographical maps. Even in this era of mobile apps with all kind of online maps, I am a bit old fashioned by having my own collection of maps and OziExplorer is a great way to use them.

I am a Dutchy and here in the Netherlands the ‘authorities’ that are responsible for Dutch topographic maps use the Rijksdriehoeksmeting (RD) Map Datum.

In this blog we look at the Dutch maps and describe how to get them properly working in OziExplorer.
