Thread: the "shift" for China maps

For China maps, the shift is added when the maps are compiled. It cannot be done on any map as you need the source files of that map to compile.

If your tracks were recorded in China with WGS84 coordinates, then you can show them correctly with the Venus shift-corrected China maps, available in this forum.
