Editing data using unit conversion

If you need to convert units, for example, between English and metric, ArcGIS for Maritime: Charting provides a mechanism for configuring unit conversion and rounding rules, applying those rules for importing into the geodatabase, exporting to S-57 format, then editing and labeling in ArcGIS for Desktop.

You can configure your own unit conversion and rounding rules using the product library workspace XML file that is included in Maritime Charting.
