Coordinate Systems in Tsunami

Hello,

I am running Tsunami 2000i, 6/11/2002 build, and I have a question about
available coordinate systems. Under UTM, I do not see anything available
for NAD 27 or NAD 83. Are these coordinate systems available, and if so,
where are they at?

Thanx,
Kevin

When using UTM coordinates, you need only to specifiy the UTM zone you are
in and the reference ellipsoid, spheroid, you are using. The coordinate
transformation routine would be used to convert from UTM to State Plane
coordinates NAD27 or 83. Hope this helps.
