Projection and extent[edit]

This map uses a UTM projection in zone 15 North. The EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset code for the projection used here is 26915. The "proj" description of the projection is "+proj=utm +zone=15 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +units=m +no_defs". A world file for this reference system that describes the location and extent of the area depicted is:

20.815690667381961

0
-20.815690667381961
681065.79387399356
4171003.9702136661

That is to say that each pixel is 20.82 meters square, and the center of the upper-left pixel in the UTM 15N reference system is at easting 681065.79387399356 and northing 4171003.9702136661.

In NAD83 coordinates:

Upper left corner

90°56'49.644"W 37°40'6.481"N

Map center

90°46'56.997"W 37°34'40.717"N
