Hello. I am looking for any source code which takes geographic coord- inates such as Latitude/Longitude, and transforms them to another map projection such as Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) or to the various State Plane Coordinate Systems. Years ago I was given a small program written in BASIC which did that, but I found out it was laden with result errors. FORTRAN, C, Pascal, even Ada would be fine; even across operating systems (MS-DOS, SVR4, Ultrix, etc.) because I have access to them all and more. Not that I'm lazy, but I do have the book from USGS with regards to the various formulae in making such transformations; I just wish I had the time to actually write the code (spoken like a true rusty programmer). I thought it best to ask first, then leap into the briar patch. If anyone can help me find this I would be grateful to at least hear from you. Thanks in advance, and have a great 1993 if you don't read this until then. -- John N Schmidt KD4EAI, Lab Director + 615-898-5561 M-F 1300-2230Z <7-4:30> Middle Tennessee State University ++ 615-898-5538 or 896-2871 FAX 24H 1500 Greenland Drive, PO Box 135 +x+ GGJNS@KNUTH.MTSU.EDU <Internet Address> Murfreesboro, TN 37132-0135 USA +xx+ MTSU Center for Remote Sensing and GIS TCP/IP ADDRESS [44.34.50.soon] +xxx+ PACKET: KD4EAI@KC4RDJ.#MIDTN.TN.USA.NA
