You could change the projection to Plate Carée (aka Equidistant Cylindrical), which is essentially just lat/lon with scale factors. Also, there's no fundamental reason why you can't use UTM for data which doesn't fit within a single zone (obviously, if you have data in other UTM zones, you'll have to reproject it, but that's no worse than reprojecting to lat/lon). -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
