Analytical Dependence Relations of Converting Geodetic Coordinates Into UTM Coordinates Recommended in Hydrographic Work

Open Access
|Jun 2016

Abstract

This article presents mathematical dependence relations used for direct conversion of geodetic coordinates into UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) and inverse conversion recommended by military standards. It mainly focuses on some formulas taken from the National Geospatial- -Intelligence Agency publication NGA.SIG.0012_2.0.0_UTMUPS - March25, 2014 and additionally from IHO Manual of Hydrography published by the International Hydrographic Office. In order to illustrate application of the presented formulas the article includes some relevant calculation examples on the reference ellipsoid WGS 84 (World Geodetic System of 1984).
