Global Mapper and UTM

Recommended Posts

Jakerod has already mentioned setting your Projection FIRST - before you load the data - that basically tells GM "This project is in UTM Zone <whatever>, WGS84", so any data you subsequently load will automatically be reprojected to the "project coordinate system" - which is the correct UTM, etc (and all measurements will now be happening in Meters, which will come in handy just shortly...

I have run into a problem,when I start GM and set projection to UTM, the bottom right corner tells me that my coordinate is out of range. Any file I load never appears.

If I start GM, load file then set UTM it works fine, but not start GM set UTM then load file, nothing. Is there some settings that I need to make in the configurations panel?

****EDIT****

Never mind, figured it out.. DOH! :P
