docs: Convert latitude and longitude data to UTM as a list of coordinates.
  
  
      Input
  
      points: list of points given in decimal degrees (latitude, longitude) or
      latitudes: list of latitudes   and
      longitudes: list of longitudes
      false_easting (optional)
      false_northing (optional)
  
      Output
  
      points: List of converted points
      zone:   Common UTM zone for converted points
  
  
      Notes
  
      Assume the false_easting and false_northing are the same for each list.
      If points end up in different UTM zones, an ANUGAerror is thrown.
