It wasn't so hard!
I ll post the solution, so everyone ll be able to do it
function getlocationcoords($lat, $lon, $width, $height)
{
$lat=$lat*20;
$lon=$lon*28;
$x = (($lon + 180) * ($width / 360));
$y = ((($lat * -1) + 90) * ($height / 180));
return array("x"=>round($x),"y"=>rou
It is a little hard to do, in fact there are several different
'projection systems' in existence. Since the Earth is not flat and
it is not even a perfect sphere, there are many ways to project
latitude and longitude information. You should check a GIS
(Geographical Information Systems) for
solution, and add it to the bottom line
for my client.

Hi,
I have to create some maps from a latitude / longitude points.
Do anyone know how to convert it to plane coordenates? (In order to show
it on a bitmat)

Lat and long are all you need for rendering on an X,Y coordinate.
Keep in mind to adjust the ratio of lat and long depending on where
you are on the globe.
Good luck!

Plain coordinates? You mean as in X, Y coordinates? If so, lat a
