This is the ellipsoidal transverse Mercator mapping the entire ellipsoid onto the plane. The ellipsoid is WGS 84. Smaller eccentricities stretch the map more horizontally and increase the longitude of the cusp; greater eccentricities compress the map horizontally and decrease the longitude of the cusp. The region along the central meridian from the north to south pole corresponds to the Universal Transverse Mercator.<BR>
