Function forwardUtm

Automatic UTM forward projection with throwing failure semantics.

UtmCoordinate!T forwardUtm(T)(
  const GeographicCoordinate!T source,
  const Ellipsoid!T ellipsoid
) @safe
if (isGeodesyScalar!T);

Parameters

NameDescription
source Geographic source coordinate in the standard automatic UTM latitude band (-80 degrees inclusive to +84 degrees exclusive).
ellipsoid Supported terrestrial oblate ellipsoid in metres.

Returns

Tagged UTM zone, hemisphere, easting, and northing.

Throws

GeodesyValueException when automatic policy selection or projection fails.

Example

Example projecting with automatic UTM zone selection. 

import geodesy;
const vienna = GeographicCoordinate!double.fromComponents(
        Latitude!double.fromDegrees(48.20849),
        Longitude!double.fromDegrees(16.37208));
const utm = forwardUtm(vienna, wgs84!double());
assert(utm.zone.number == 33);
