Oscar,
Sorry for the bad coordinate comparisons. I have read from a previous post of yours and Melita Kennedy that you were able to get the correct coordinates using the "no_off" tag using your customized proj program. I am using proj 4.4.6 and still getting the wrong results with +no_uoff. Does Proj446 use libproj definitions? Here is a comparison using the example lat long that you and Melita used, and also an extra point. Your calculations using "type = 5" and "norot, no_off" from July 23, 2006 appear to exactly match the Autodesk points The following two points were transformed using Michigan Georef to Lat Long NAD83 in AutoDesk Map 2007.
Point 1
-86 Longitude NAD83
43 Latitude NAD83
499864.5000769 X georef meters Correct
272108.8592635 Y georef meters Correct
Point 2
-84 Longitude NAD83
44 Latitude NAD83
662870.1177213 X georef meters correct
341261.925 Y georef meters correct
Here are my results of Lat Long NAD83 to Michigan Georef using the "+no_uoff" flag on Point 1
cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=NAD83 +to +proj=omerc +k_0=0.9996 +alpha=337.25555555555556 +lat_0=45.30916666666667 +lonc=86 +x_0=2546731.496 +y_0=-4354009.816 +no_uoff +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +units=m

Here are my results of Lat Long NAD83 to Michigan Georef using the "no_rot" and "+no_uoff" flag on Point 1
18028485.13 -2459745.46
Here are my results of Lat Long NAD83 to Michigan Georef using the neither the "no_rot" nor the "+no_uoff" flag on Point 1
355007.17 5773612.22
I know you have gotten this to work on your program, could you tell me what I am doing wrong? Is there a different definition than "proj=omerc" in epsg format that would be the equivalent of your "type=5" omerc? Once I get this corrected, I would hope to have this formally and permanently added to the epsg file with the proper parameters. Thanks for the help.
