![]() He also has added a bulk convertor for those times when you have many values to convert. There are also other web sites that have utilities to convert coordinate values such as this neat one by Peter Lewis that will display your converted coordinate value in Google Maps or a few other online maps. The purpose of this document is to present an analysis of the standard algorithms used to convert the location of a point on the earths surface from. Google Earth allows you to change the input settings, letting you work with either UTM or LAT/LONG and ArcGIS also has a XY coordinate locator tool. Now the Canadian Spatial Reference System tool isn’t the only way to convert coordinate values there are other utilities built into some software packages. the links below will provide you with much larger Canadian reference maps like the one above. Something else we find common in Geomatics is that people will supply you coordinates in UTM or MTM and forget to let you know what zone it is located, so we often use these two Canadian reference maps that have the zones clearly defined on them as a quick guide. You with a simple input screen where you can enter your coordinate values with basic info about the coordinate system and then with the click of a button you get converted values in the system you are using.Ĭonvert Geographic to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) – Ĭonvert Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) to Geographic ![]() If you ever find yourself in need of quickly getting values converted from Geographic to UTM / MTM (Modified Traverse Mercator) or UTM / MTM to Geographic then we suggest a free online converter tool that we use provided by the Canadian Spatial Reference System (Natural Resources Canada). ![]() In Canada most of our data sets are created in Geographic, UTM or MTM, although there are other coordinate systems (but these are the most common). ![]()
