<p dir="ltr">Thanks. I believe all GeoLOD nodes in Squaw.x3d had this issue. Other Geo nodes were OK.</p>

<p dir="ltr">sofar still shows "UTM Z10 N" values. Will check again.</p>
<p dir="ltr">>> In my implementation of parsing of the geoSystem field for x3dom, I just ignore values other than "S" and assume the northern hemisphere. Similarly, I ignore all other strings which cannot be mapped to one of the values given in spec .<br>

<p dir="ltr">The "N" is often found as part of the UTM zone designation in UTM coordinates, since it disambiguates from "S". It should be allowed. Assuming the northern hemisphere when not explicitly given is convenient but not necessarily standard practice. One would always expect a S or N appended to the UTM zone number.</p>
