In James-Thorson/FishStatsUtils: Utilities (shared code and data) for FishStats spatio-temporal modeling toolbox

Convert from Lat-Long to UTM

Description

Convert_LL_to_UTM_Fn converts from Latitude-Longitude to Universal Transverse Mercator projections for a given location

Usage

Convert_LL_to_UTM_Fn(Lon, Lat, zone = NA, flip_around_dateline = FALSE)

Arguments

Lon	vector of longitudes
Lat	vector of latitudes
zone	UTM zone (integer between 1 and 60) or alphanumeric CRS code used by package rgdal to convert latitude-longitude coordinates to projection in kilometers; zone=NA uses UTM and automatically detects the appropriate zone
flip_around_dateline	boolean specifying whether to flip Lat-Lon locations around the dateline, and then retransform back (only useful if Lat-Lon straddle the dateline)

Value

A data frame with the following columns

X

The UTM eastings for each value of Lon

Y

The UTM northings measured from the equator for each Lat
