############################################################################### The UTM Projection In this exercise we will learn how to define a simple projection using PROJ. We will investigate a few aspects of the UTM projection, as well as learn how to use a different ellipsoid than the default (GRS80). ############################################################################### 1. Set up a UTM projection for use in Estonia. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hints: * Consult the documentation at https://proj.org/operations/projections/utm.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- operation tolerance 1 cm accept 24.745 59.437 # Talinn, Estonia expect 372106.37 6590881.40 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Set up a UTM projection for use on the North Island of New Zealand ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hints: * Consult the documentation at https://proj.org/operations/projections/utm.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- operation tolerance 1 cm accept 174.740 -36.841 # Auckland, New Zealand expect 298481.34 5920382.04 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Set up a UTM projection based on the Hayford ellipsoid for use in Estonia ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hints: * Consult the documentation at https://proj.org/operations/projections/utm.html * A list of available ellipsoids can be seen by running the command: proj -le ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- operation tolerance 1 cm accept 24.745 59.437 # Talinn, Estonia expect 372099.99 6591034.35 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
