Hi everyone,
this isn't directly related to mapserver but it is because I'm trying to set up a world file for a jpeg image...
can someone give me some pointers on how to use the PROJ command line to convert a lat/long point to UTM zone coordinates?
I have tried several things but keep getting different results e.g.
proj +proj=utm +lon_0=-63 -E -r <<EOF
> 46.25N 64.5W
> EOF
46.25N 64.5W 384376.30 5122918.25
proj +proj=utm +lon_0=-63 -E -r <<EOF
> 46.25N 65W
> EOF
46.25N 65W 345835.64 5123768.85
How come the UTM coordinate for 46.25N changed?
What am I doing incorrectly?
If anyone could please tell me the correct way to use the PROJ command line for lat/long to UTM conversion, I'd really REALLY appreciate it!
Thanks,
D. Pagurek
p.s. using PROJ 4.4.5 on linux.
