In order to convert a geographic coordinate (lat/lon - WGS84) to a projected coordinate (UTM - NAD83), I writted the following code:
> OGRSpatialReference oUTM;
> oUTM.SetWellKnownGeogCS( "NAD83" ); // the target reference system
> OGRCoordinateTransformation *poTransform=OGRCreateCoordinateTransformation(&m_oSRS, &oUTM); // m_oSRS is the source reference system (WGS84)
> if (poTransform == NULL)
> return;
>
> poTransform->Transform( 1, pfXproj, pfYproj );
> delete poTransform;
It don't works, the Transform function returns TRUE, but the coordinate (*pfXproj,*pfYproj) remain immutate.
Moreover, how can I find the UTM zone?
Thanks.
Michele
