We receive CAD data frequently and -- at least in residential
development planning -- the data is ALWAYS without exception either in
State Plane (NAD 83) or a coordinate system specific to the project
based on a control point. I would think that implies that State Plane in
the U.S. is a standard, which makes me wonder if they do something
similar in Europe.
