State Plane Coordinate System of 1983
www.ngs.noaa.govdefined within SPCS 83: Lambert conformal conic, transverse Mercator, and oblique Mercator. A section on t~a Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection is included. UTM is a derivative of the general transverse Mercator projection as well as another projection, in addition to SPCS 83, on which NAD 83 is published by NGS. 1. INTRODUCTION

lib.bsu.edu2) Transverse Mercator The Transverse Mercator projection is a cylindrical projection often used to portray areas with larger north-south than east-west extent. Distortion of scale, distance, direction and area increase away from the central meridian. The Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection is
