#' Convert HK80UTM coordinates to HK1980GRID coordinates
#' 
#' Convert HK80UTM coordinates to HK1980GRID coordinates
#' 
#' This function converts the coordinates to HK80GEO first, and convert the
#' intermediate results into HK1980GRID coordinates.
#' 
#' @param N Numeric, Northern coordinate in meters
#' @param E Numeric, Eastern coordinate in meters
#' @param zone zone, UTM zone, either 49 or 50 for Hong Kong.
#' @return \item{N}{Northern coordinate in meters} \item{E}{Eastern coordinate
#' in meters}
#' @note The coordinates should be within the range of Hong Kong. Providing
#' coordinates outside Hong Kong will lead to wrong results.
