> (Note: in the EPSG dataset, Gauss-Kruger and Gauss-Boaga projections are
> considered to be the same than Transverse Mercator.)
> We could port most of the Transverse Mercator projection in Geotk (after IP
> review), but the formulas changed. The formulas used by Geotk were derived
> from USGS, while the formulas used by EPSG (called "JHS") are accurate over a
> wider range of longitudes.
> Consequently, we should rewrite the Transverse Mercator projection from the
> new EPSG formulas.
