+This operations allows for components of coordinates to be set to a fixed value.
+This may be useful in :ref:`pipeline<pipeline>` when a step requires some
+component, typically an elevation or a date, to be set to a fixed value.
+
+Example
+################################################################################
+
+In the ETRS89 to Dutch RD with NAP height transformation, the used ellipsoidal
+height for the Helmert transformation is not the NAP height, but the height is
+set to 0 m. This is an unconventional trick to get the same results as when the
+effect of the Helmert transformation is included in the horizontal NTv2 grid.
+For the forward transformation from ETRS89 to RD with NAP height, we need to set
+the ellipsoidal ETRS89 height for the Helmert transformation to the equivalent
+of 0 m NAP. This is 43 m for the centre of the Netherlands and this value can
+be used as an approximation elsewhere (the effect of this approximation is
+below 1 mm for the horizontal coordinates, in an area up to hundreds of km
+outside the Netherlands).
+
+The ``+proj=set +v_3=0`` close to the end of the pipeline is to make it usable in
+the reverse direction.
