Method Detail

LLtoUTM

public static double[] LLtoUTM(int ellipsoidRef,
                               double Lat,
                               double Long)

Converts lat/long to UTM coordinates. East Longitudes are positive, West are negative. North latitudes are positive, South are negative. UTM is limited to 84N to 80S.

Parameters:

ellipsoidRef -

Lat - -- decimal degrees

Long - -- decimal degrees

UTMtoLL

public static GPSPosition UTMtoLL(int ellipsoidRef,
                                  double UTMNorthing,
                                  double UTMEasting,
                                  int ZoneNumber,
                                  int Hemisphere)

Converts UTM coords to lat/long. East Longitudes are positive, West longitudes are negative. North latitudes are positive, South latitudes are negative. Lat and Long are in decimal degrees.

getZoneNumber

public static int getZoneNumber(GPSPosition pos)

Returns the zone number for a given GPSPosition parameter.

Parameters:

pos -

Returns:

UTM zone number.

getZoneNumber

public static int getZoneNumber(double Lat,
                                double Long)
