15-62 Two examples of strip transformations
Let us consider two examples of a strip transformation of conformal coordinates of Gauss–Krueger type
with a dilatation factor ρ = 1 (A. Schoedlbauer 1981c, 1982c,a) and a strip transformation of conformal
coordinates of UTM type with ρ = 0.999 578. Due to Example 15.8, we start from the coordinates ellipsoidal longitude/latitude of TP I.O. Bonstetten ({L, B} = {10

Bessel ellipsoid of semi-major axis A = 6377 397.155 m and reciprocal flattening f
−1 = 299.152 812 85.
The first and second strip has been fixed with L 01 = 9
◦ and L 02 = 12
◦ , respectively. The ellipsoidal latitude of the reference point was chosen to B 0 = 48
◦ . In addition, we compared the direct transformation {L, B} → {x 1 , y 1 } and {L, B} → {x 2 , y 2 } as illustrated by the commutative
diagram of Fig. 15.17, leading to differences in the submillimeter range. By contrast, Example 15.9
gives the strip transformation of a point {L, B} = {12.01

have been in the submillimeter range the closer B 0 is chosen to the point {L, B}.
