I believe that WGS84 are a degree format and universal fore the whole earth, but UTM (Universal transverse Mercator coordinate system) with metrical coordinat system are depending on zones and meridian. So if you search on wikipedia there are more about zones over the world. <br>
<br>Hope this helps a little /Cheers Johan N<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2012/10/29 adamu eloji <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:aeloji60@yahoo.com" target="_blank">aeloji60@yahoo.com</a>></span><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
