UTM Converter

Modern technology allowed us to map out every corner of the Earth. Based on coordinates, GPS devices can now guide you anywhere you need to go. However, there are different types of coordinates, and you might not understand, or need the other type than the one at hand, and this is exactly where UTM Converter comes in handy.

Although you first need to go through a setup process to make everything work, the application doesn’t make any changes to system registry entries, so you can just as well have it deployed on a thumb drive in case you want to carry it around wherever you go.

As far as the visual design is concerned, the application puts more focus on making the conversion process easy, rather than offer a stunning visual display. This simplicity keeps everything in a clean layout, which is even fitted with a description field for decimal degrees, stating negative values indicate West longitudes and South latitudes.

The conversion process is two-way, meaning you can convert either from decimal degrees to UTM coordinates or the other way around, based on the values at hand. The greater the level of detail, the more accuracy provided. Each section has dedicated fields, such as latitude and longitude for geo coordinates, as well as X and Y for UTM.

Conversion is done at the press of a button. Note, however, that exporting values is only possible via the keyboard, because there’s no save function. If you want to start over, there’s a dedicated button which clears all fields for you.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that UTM Converter is a straightforward coordinate conversion tool. You can convert based on the value types you know, and results are delivered at the press of a button, making it worth your while overall.
