How are UTM coordinates written?
For locations north of the equator, give the zone number, the letter “N”, and the distance from the central meridian in meters. For example, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, which is located at lat/long 18.5425*, – 72.3386*, has UTM coordinates of 18N 780950E 2052283N.
What units does UTM use?
Answer: UTM is always in meters so there will NOT be a UTM feet projection out there. If you really need to see your UTM data IN feet, then you can follow these instructions to change the units. Essentially, you will reproject the data to a new UTM coordinate system and modify it so that it uses feet instead of meters.
