Hi!
Maybe this is a very basic question, but I’ve spent already many hours and can’t find a solution.
My challenge is to simply get the UTM position of a point that I know the LAT and LONG. Actually I have already defined in my Rhino file that 0,0,0 would correspond to that EARTHPOINTCOORDINATE.
But at some time in the future somebody will ask that in UTM. I can use a simple online calculator, but I guess it is possible in Grasshopper, but I have not find it.
Any suggestions?
Thank you again.
word of caution: the code is not tested for the general case, it just replicates your input and shows how to use python packages.
Here are the relevant docs: pyproj Transformer
Hi @mutarq,
Heron has a Coordinate Transformation component that will convert a point from one coordinate system to another. You could construct a point from those lat/lon values and use the component to get UTM coordinates.
I can post an example when I get back to my machine next week.

Hi Bryan!..
Thank you for replying! and of course next week would be ok… hope ther is an easier solution. But I’l try too the python Transfomer suggested by @dn.aur
Best!
Hi @mutarq ,
This is the set up for using Coordinate Transformation. You had two slightly different sets of coordinates in your original post, so I’m showing both.

thank you very much for the suggestion…it works great. (i was confused with the EPSG codes. but now I get it too.)
