1: I want to import a map into TEISS, what coordinate system and datum does the file need to be?
A. TEISS View Coordinate System and Datum
TEISS View State/County/Tribe maps are in Geographical Coordinate System in NAD83. If you have a shapefile in
another coordinate system and want to convert into Geographic Coordinates in NAD83, you can use the TEISS
