Description
Currently, conversion of MGRS strings to Lat/Long always returns the position of the center of the designated cell. The request is to enhance the MGRS API to include a parameter which would select one of the eight other possible positions on the boundary of the grid cell.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
A new function has been added to the CS-MAP MGRS API: CScalcLlFromMgrsEx. This function operates exactly as CScalcLlFromMgrs has always operated, but accepts an additional parameter which indicates which of the 8 positions on the boundary of the MGRS grid square whose position is to be returned.
The functionality of all existsing function remains unchanged. The Console Test module was updated to include a small subset oif tests exercising the new feature.
