why variations in accuracy between R to ARCGIS for the same point reprojection?
...utputs of the same
reprojection in r and arcgis are different?. The magnitude of the
change can be up to 40 km in the poles.
Basically, I have a database of points equally separated by one degree
over the globe.
In ARCGIS, I am projecting the data in GCS-WGS-1984 and then
reprojected it to Berhmann to ensure equal area distribution of the
points.
In R, I am using:
spPoint <-
SpatialPoints(coords=coordinates(Data),proj4string=CRS("+proj=longlat
+datum=WGS84"))
and then reprojecting it to Berhmann with:
spPointReprj=spTransform(Data,CRS("+proj=cea +lon_0=0 +lat_ts=30
+...
