Abstract
A tutorial description of the general usage of the cartographic projection program proj
(release 3) along with speci c cartographic parameters and illustrations of the ap-
proximately 70 cartographic projections supported by the program is presented. The
program is designed as a standard Unix lter utility to be employed with other pro-

applications. Tables and shell scripts are also provided for conversion of State Plane
Coordinate Systems to and from geographic coordinates.
