Alternatively, if you want to bound the system to (x1, y1, x2, y2)=(-500000, 0, 500000, 1000000), the
required line is:
UTM Zone 1 (NAD 83)- bounded
coordsys 8,33,7,-177,0,0.9996,500000,0, -500000, 0,
500000, 1000000

Universal Transverse Mercator
To customize the system using both of these modifications, the line is:
UTM Zone 1 (NAD 83)
coordsys 8,33,7,-177,0,0.9996,500000,0, 7, 0.5, -
0.866, 0, 0.866, 0.5, 0, -500000, 0, 500000,

Projection Datums
The datum is established by tying a reference ellipsoid to a particular point on the earth. The
following table lists these details for each datum:
• The number used to identify the datum in the MapInfoCoordinateSystemSet.xml file.
• The datum’s name
• The maps for which the datum is typically used
• The datum’s reference ellipsoid
