Good to know
- Pick the UTM zone by longitude. Points outside the zone's area of use are flagged after conversion.
- Datum: Published 7-parameter shift (typically 1–2 m).

- Under Coordinate system, search for “23849” and pick ID74 / UTM zone 49N.
- Check one point you know on the map, then press Save KML or Save KMZ and open it in Google Earth.
Common mistakes with ID74 / UTM zone 49N
- Feet entered as metres. ID74 / UTM zone 49N is in metres. Coordinates copied from a drawing in feet must be converted first, or every point moves outwards from the grid's origin.
- Forgetting the datum. ID74 / UTM zone 49N is not on WGS 84: published 7-parameter shift (typically 1–2 m). Picking a WGS 84 grid with the same projection instead leaves the points off by that amount.
- Points outside the grid's area. ID74 / UTM zone 49N is meant for Indonesia - onshore north of equator and between 108°E and 114°E. Points well outside that area convert with growing error; the converter flags them so you can choose the right grid.
- A local site grid. If every point is off by the same distance and direction, the drawing may be on a local site grid. Calibrate on three or more known control points instead.
