# ascii2ascii\_UTM(1)

transforms (lat,lon,h) files into UTM coordinates

## NAME

ascii2ascii\_UTM - transforms (lat,lon,h) files into UTM coordinates

## DESCRIPTION

ascii2ascii\_UTM v1.0 Doris software, bert kampes, (c)1999-2003

-

  USAGE:

- ascii2ascii\_UTM

  ascii3column  +zone=utmzone

- This program transforms the WGS84 "longitude

  latitude  height" 3 column

-

  ascii file of Doris (created with philamh2ascii) to UTM coordinates using proj.  (longitude=lambda, latitude=phi) First use program lonlathei2ascii to create the 3 column ascii input file.

-

  THe UTM zone needs to be specified as in the example. Alternatively, one could specify +lon\_0=-114 for example (see proj manual).

- This script can serve as an example.

  If you want to have another projection,

-

  see the manual of proj and cs2cs how to do this.

-

  EXAMPLE:

- ascii2ascii\_UTM lonlathei.dat +utm\_zone=33

  xyz\_utm.dat
