Hi Everyone,
I am working with coordinates from the South Africa which is East of the
Meridian and South of the Equator. Currently my cordinates are in WGS84
recorded something like this 19.523912 E -33.94084 N (or rather 33.94084
S). I understand when working in UTM in the Southern Hemisphere the
origin is defined as a point 10,000,000 metres south of the equator. Is
there a simple way to "tell" PBSmapping that I am working in the
Southern Hemisphere (i.e. latitude zone)?
Thanks,
Rob Taylor
PS I can get the correct easting value since PBSmapping allows one to
define the UTM longitudal zone
