// LatLonToUTMXY
// Converts a latitude/longitude pair to x and y coordinates in the

//   lat - Latitude of the point, in radians.

//   zone - UTM zone to be used for calculating values for x and y.
//          If zone is less than 1 or greater than 60, the routine

// Outputs:
//   x - The x coordinate (easting) of the computed point. (in meters)
//   y - The y coordinate (northing) of the computed point. (in meters)
//
// Returns:
//   The UTM zone used for calculating the values of x and y.
