The <UTM-SRS> element defines a spatial reference system
based on the UTM projection. This element is required if your map or
services use EPSG codes based on a UTM projection. For more information
about the EPSG codes used in OpenGIS services, see
http://www.epsg.org.

Example:
<UTM-SRS srs="EPSG:26911"
alias="UTM NAD83 zone 11 North"
ellipsoid="GRS 1980"
zone="11"
hemisphere="north"/>
<UTM-SRS srs="EPSG:32611"
alias="UTM WGS84 zone 11 North"
ellipsoid="WGS 84"
zone="11"
hemisphere="north"/>
Valid ellipsoid names:
WGS 84
Clarke 1866
GRS 1980
If you need to define a projection with an ellipsoid not on this list,
consider using a <WKT-SRS>
projection element instead.
