  • $\begingroup$ Thanks. Is there a webpage that explains the state plane systems referred here? If I understand right, in the UTM zone 11, all points can be assumed to lie in a plane with small error, and the coordinates -3848.25, 3.60975*10^6 etc are w.r.t. to the boundaries of the zone. Is this correct? $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 1, 2014 at 0:05
