// UTM.h
// Original Javascript by Chuck Taylor
// Port to C++ by Alex Hajnal
//
// This is a simple port of the code on the Geographic/UTM Coordinate Converter (1) page from Javascript to C++.
// Using this you can easily convert between UTM and WGS84 (latitude and longitude).
// Accuracy seems to be around 50cm (I suspect rounding errors are limiting precision).
// This code is provided as-is and has been minimally tested; enjoy but use at your own risk!
// The license for UTM.cpp and UTM.h is the same as the original Javascript:
// "The C++ source code in UTM.cpp and UTM.h may be copied and reused without restriction."

// DegToRad
// Converts degrees to radians.
// RadToDeg
// Converts radians to degrees.
// ArcLengthOfMeridian
// Computes the ellipsoidal distance from the equator to a point at a
// given latitude.

// GPS: Theory and Practice, 3rd ed. New York: Springer-Verlag Wien, 1994.
//
// Inputs:
// phi - Latitude of the point, in radians.
//
// Globals:
// sm_a - Ellipsoid model major axis.
// sm_b - Ellipsoid model minor axis.
//
// Returns:
// The ellipsoidal distance of the point from the equator, in meters.
// UTMCentralMeridian
// Determines the central meridian for the given UTM zone.
//
// Inputs:
// zone - An integer value designating the UTM zone, range [1,60].
//
// Returns:
// The central meridian for the given UTM zone, in radians
// Range of the central meridian is the radian equivalent of [-177,+177].
// FootpointLatitude
//
// Computes the footpoint latitude for use in converting transverse
// Mercator coordinates to ellipsoidal coordinates.

// Inputs:
// y - The UTM northing coordinate, in meters.
//
// Returns:
// The footpoint latitude, in radians.
// MapLatLonToXY
// Converts a latitude/longitude pair to x and y coordinates in the
// Transverse Mercator projection. Note that Transverse Mercator is not
// the same as UTM; a scale factor is required to convert between them.
