The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List: modid: Geo::Coordinates::UTM DSLIP: bdpOp description: Translation between Lat Lon and UTM Coords userid: GRAHAMC (Graham Crookham) chapterid: 23 (Miscellaneous_Modules) communities:
similar: Geo::Coordinates::Convert rationale: Geo::Coordinates::UTM Translating Latitude/Longitude to Universal Transverse Mercator and vice versa using any of 24 different Ellipsoids (Clarke 1866, Airy, Aus National, WGS-84, Everest etc..) UTM and Lat Lon are by far the most common coordinate systems in use worldwide. Module will work for any valid UTM / Lat Lon reference. 2 functions - latlon_to_utm , utm_to_latlon - converting from 1 system to the other. QED. Examples of Use: Translating downloaded GPS coordinates from one system to another, remapping survey points based on different projections of map. Currently no module exists to do this translation. Geo::coordinates::Convert is very specific to the French Lambert system. UTM is a global standard. enteredby: GRAHAMC (Graham Crookham) enteredon: Fri Nov 1 15:33:14 2002 GMT The resulting entry would be: Geo::Coordinates:: ::UTM bdpOp Translation between Lat Lon and UTM Coords GRAHAMC Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=17300000_63f76f10db5e6411&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=17300000_63f76f10db5e6411&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
