//  A rip-off of the IUE utm_geodedic and geodetic_utm transform classes
//   which allows the GeoPt to support a constructor in UTM coordinates.
//  The constructor defaults to WGS-84, but there are accessors to
//  set the major and minor axes of other spheroids, e.g. nad-27.
//
//  The latitude and longitude values are expressed in degrees, with
//  negative values representing South and West respectively.
//  The UTM zone is 1 between 180 degrees and 174 degrees West
//  longitude and increases by one every six degrees from West to East.
//  The UTM zone ranges from 10 on the West Coast of the US to 19 on the
//  East Coast.  If the latitude is negative, i.e., below the equator,
//  then the south_flag should be set to true.  I am not sure what the
//  utm_central_meridian variable is for, maybe for the polar caps.
