I'm using proj4.js to convert geographic coordinates (degrees, minutes and seconds) to UTM coordinates (ETRS89 Zone 30). When I get my coordinates result of the transformation I'm checking them with several web coordinates converters and I never get the same result (I mean really different ...
A point of confusion with UTM in the use of "false northings" for locations in the Southern hemisphere, to avoid negative coordinates. This is done by adding 10,000,000 to the y coordinates, as illustrated below using the +south element. s <- vect(cbind(174, -44), crs="+proj=long...
I have a set of coordinates in decimal degrees spread across two UTM zones in my Java application that I want to export to use in Petrel, so they need to be in the same UTM zone. Is there a java library out there where I can specify what zone I want to use for the outputdata?
The position of an object in XY coordinates is converted to longitude and latitude to get a better and clear idea about the spot of the object on the surface of the earth. The position of an object can be expressed in a number of formats like the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS), ...
Its better to convert to utm coordinates, and treat that as x and y. The result will be (779260.623156606, 1429369.8665238516, 43, 'P') The first two can be treated as x,y coordinates, the 43P is the UTM Zone, which can be ignored for small areas (width upto 668 km)....
maps. It is not difficult to convert grid coordinates to latitude and longitude, as both use a Cartesian plane, where the Equator and Prime Meridian are the x- and y-axis respectively. However, unless regional maps offer latitude and longitude scales, conversion is possible only on world maps...

We need one key piece of information before we can convert degrees to arc length, and that's the radius of the circle or sphere on which we measure the arc. Once we know it, the conversion is simple. Here's the two-step procedure: ...
Multiply the degrees of separation of longitude and latitude by 111,139 to get the corresponding linear distances in meters. Consider the line between the two points as the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle with base "x" equal to the latitude and height "y" equal to the longitude between...
