I am using command (Specify Coordinates at Point) to relocate my project to a specific set of coordinates - usually if i set one point then all coordinates comes ok, however in one of the project there is difference.

Is it bcoz of angle from project north to true north?

Please advise how to get accurate coordinates as drawings from survey department seems to be correct

Thanks in advance

Dear WWHUB - Thanks, i got some success.

Now the challenge is that survey drawing is in meter unit. When i link same in new Revit project then coordinates are ok, however not in actual project.

Actual project model was started in MM so dont know the right way to adjust coordinates in that file. I am new for coordinates world so please help

Thanks in advance,

Rams

All units can be set in Revit for project and seperately for annotative elements.  Change the units of what you need accordingly.
