Description
The Indiana Geospatial Coordinate System (InGCS) was approved and adopted by INDOT in 2015 and will soon be the primary coordinate reference system used on INDOT survey and design projects. Other agencies and organizations in the geospatial arena are encouraged to make use of this system of low distortion projections as well. Many of the more widely used geospatial software vendors have since included the InGCS in their platforms to support their customers’ needs. Please refer to the InGCS webpage at www.in.gov/indot/InGCS.htm for additional information.
