A method for the transformation of information relating to at least one position on a globe from a first global coordinates system into a second local coordinates system, where the position in the first global coordinates system is provided by information relating to the longitude and a latitude, and the position in the second local coordinates system is provided in terms of two axes arranged orthogonally to one another. The method includes receiving a signal containing information relating to the position by means of an antenna, determining a first distance (x) between the position and a reference longitude for the first local axis using a calculation unit, and determining a second distance (y) between the position and a reference latitude for the second local axis by means of the calculation unit. The reference longitude is selected in such a way that it is near to the position.
