The Universal Polar Stereographic (UPS) coordinate system is used in conjunction with the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinate system to locate positions on the surface of the Earth.
The format is associated with the USRP/ASRP 1.1/1.2 specifications and the French Defense Mapping Agency.
Open a .usrp file with the geospatial or mapping software that created it, or with a program that explicitly supports the USRP/ASRP 1.1/1.2 specifications. General-purpose text, image, or office applications may not interpret the file correctly.
If the file is supported by a compatible mapping or geospatial application, use that application's export or reprojection features to save the data in another supported format.
