Note: These formulas have been transcribed from EPSG Guidance Note #7-2. Users are encouraged to use that document rather than the text which follows as reference because limitations in the transcription will be avoided. The formulas to derive projected Easting and Northing coordinates are: Easting E = FE + nu[A - TA^3/6 -(8 - T + 8C)TA^5/120] Northing N = FN + M - M0 + nu*tan(lat)*[A^2/2 + (5 - T + 6C)A^4/24] where A = (lon - lon0)cos(lat) T = tan^2(lat) C = e2 cos2*/(1 - e2) nu = a /(1 - esq*sin^2(lat))^0.5 and M, the distance along the meridian from equator to latitude lat, is given by M = a[(1 - e^2/4 - 3e^4/64 - 5e^6/256 -....)*lat - (3e^2/8 + 3e^4/32 + 45e^6/1024 +....)sin(2*lat) + (15e^4/256 + 45e^6/1024 +.....)sin(4*lat) - (35e^6/3072 + ....)sin(6*lat) + .....] with lat in radians. M0 is the value of M calculated for the latitude of the chosen origin. This may not necessarily be chosen as the equator. To compute latitude and longitude from Easting and Northing the reverse formulas are: lat = lat1 - (nu1tan(lat1)/rho1)[D2/2 - (1 + 3*T1)D^4/24] lon = lon0 + [D - T1*D^3/3 + (1 + 3*T1)T1*D^5/15]/cos(lat1) where lat1 is the latitude of the point on the central meridian which has the same Northing as the point whose coordinates are sought, and is found from: lat1 = mu1 + (3*e1/2 - 27*e1^3/32 +.....)sin(2*mu1) + (21*e1^2/16 - 55*e1^4/32 + ....)sin(4*mu1)+ (151*e1^3/96 +.....)sin(6*mu1) + (1097*e1^4/512 - ....)sin(8*mu1) + ...... where e1 = [1- (1 - esq)^0.5]/[1 + (1 - esq)^0.5] mu1 = M1/[a(1 - esq/4 - 3e^4/64 - 5e^6/256 - ....)] M1 = M0 + (N - FN) T1 = tan^2(lat1) D = (E - FE)/nu1
