Hi Dennis. This is a great question. You can definitely do it using open source QGIS. It’s very similar to Esri ArcMap. The basic steps are… 1) Create new field for latitude and longitude, 2) Right-click and calculate field and 3) Select X-coordinate and Y-coordinate and calculate in WGS84

The formula would be difficult as there are many UTM zones. You’re best to use software, and QGIS is the #1 option

IE: what are the formulae or routines to do this? And vice versa!

Thank you.
Dennis Revell.
