Long Description

This application computes the geographic coordinates from a cartographic one. user has to give the X and Y coordinate and the cartographic projection (UTM/LAMBERT/LAMBERT2/LAMBERT93/SINUS/ECKERT4/TRANSMERCATOR/MOLLWEID/SVY21).

Parameters

- [group] Input cartographic coordinates (-carto):

  - [param] X cartographic coordinates (-x): X cartographic coordinates in the specified projection.

  - [param] Y cartographic coordinates (-y): Y cartographic coordinates in the specified projection.

- [choice] Map projection type (-mapproj): Type of projection used for the conversion. Possible values are: utm, lambert, lambert2, lambert93, sinus, eckert4, transmercator, mollweid and svy21.

  - [group] utm:

    - [param] zone (-zone): UTM zone of the point.

    - [param] Is in north hemisphere (-hemisphere): Is the point is in the north hemisphere or not.

    - [param] First parallele degree (-parallel1degree): First Lambert parallele degree.

    - [param] Second parallele degree (-parallel2degree): Second Lambert parallele degree.

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Lambert false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Lambert false easting value.

  - [group] lambert3:

    - [param] First parallele degree (-parallel1degree): First Lambert parallele degree.

    - [param] Second parallele degree (-parallel2degree): Second Lambert parallele degree.

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Lambert false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Lambert false easting value.

  - [group] lambert93:

    - [param] First parallele degree (-parallel1degree): First Lambert parallele degree.

    - [param] Second parallele degree (-parallel2degree): Second Lambert parallele degree.

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Lambert false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Lambert false easting value.

  - [group] sinus:

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Sinus false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Sinus false easting value.

  - [group] eckert4:

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Eckert4 false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Eckert4 false easting value.

  - [group] transmercator:

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Transmercator false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Transmercator scale factor value.

    - [param] Scale factor (-scale):

  - [group] mollweid:

    - [param] False easting (-falseeasting): Mollweid false easting value.

    - [param] False easting (-falsenorthing): Mollweid false easting value.

  - [group] svy21:

- [param] Output long (-long): Point longitude coordinates.
