Hi all,
may someone help me transform these two coordinates into UTM grid. The two
locations are supposed to be in Uganda according to my correspondant. By
transferring them into UTM grid I always end up in the Khartoum area in
Sudan.
site 1: Zone 36 Easting 330104 Northing 150680
site 2: Zone 36 Easting 330086 Northing 148715
(oh yes, these are meteorite related)
thanks for your efforts in advance
Best wishes
Svend

Hi Mike, Axel, Peter, Martin, and List,
I think Mike is right although "weg" can have several different meanings
depending
on the context. What a fine opportunity to show our list members how
closely related
German and English are - they are both Germanic (or Teutonic) languages
after all.
So look and listen: a German "t" is often a "d" in English, and "ag" or
"eg" is "ay"
or "ai". Here are some examples:
Weg - way / Tag - day / lag - lay / sag - say / mag - may / Segel - sail
Some more?
The German syllable "-ark-" or "-org-" is often represented by the English
"row"
Look here: Mark => marrow / Sorge => sorrow / Morgen => (to-) morrow.
German -elb- or -alg- or -olg- can change into "low": gelb => yellow /
Talg => tallow / folgen => follow
Sorry, I couldn't resist ;-)
Bernd
