Recently i do some work on computing point scale factor in utm coordinate system. The input of system is Easting,Northing,height and zone number in UTM (WGS84) and output is point scale factor.
First of all i should mention that the thing that we use as scale factor most of the time is Grid factor (Combined Scale Factor that is the product of UTM Scale factor and Elevation Factor). I explain more.
Consider three coordinate systems.
System1:The system that we do observation in the surface of the earth with traditional surveying instrument (like total station and theodolites but not GPS)
System2: WGS84 (for example) or any other ellipsoid that made a coordinate system (we make a coordinate system using an ellipsoid by projecting the point into the ellipsoid plane and measure geodetic fi and landa angles and also height of the point)
System3: is a projection surface(UTM) . this is what made (fi,landa) to (x,y) and make it possible to use paper maps to represent the earth curved surface (Earth is a curved surface in all points)
for converting a length from system1 to susyem3 we should use two kind of scale factors.
for example you measure a length on earth with GPS (E,N,h) and want to convert it to local length . what should we do?
first you should compute a scale factor that bring the point of observation from elevation h into the surface of ellipsoid (h=0). it is because all of computations is on the surface. the name of this kind of scale factor is "Elevation Factor" (EF). it's formula is a very simple relation.
EF=(Re/Re+h) where Re= mean earth radius =6371000m and "h" is ellipsoid height of point.
second scale factor is what that transform between projection coordinate system(UTM) and WGS84 coordinate system.it's formula (with negligible truncation) is:
k=k0(1+(landa-landa0)^2*cos(fi)^2/2) where:
k=scale factor
k0=central meridian scale factor =0.9996 (in UTM Coordinate system)
(fi,landa) are the position of the point in WGS84
landa0=longitude of central meridian in that zone in utm Coordinate System
and at last for computing "grid scale factor" or combined scale factor, you should multiply k*EF=Grid Factor
Grid factor is used to convert length from surface of earth into projection system (UTM) and if you want convert UTM length into earth surface length you should divide length into the Grid Factor.
you are done here but if you want go further, in measuring a length in fact we have 2 points, Start point and End point. it is better that you compute point scale factor in Start and End (or Start Middle and End) and then use average (or Weighted average) Scale Factor. in short distances it is not problem to use ONE SF but in long distances you need to average.
I wrote a C# program that takes E.N,h and zone and compute (fi,landa) and then Scal factor,Elevation Factor and finally Grid factor (combined Factor). here is a source code.
For rebuilding project you should just make a form and put some textbox controls and give desired input:

The precision is tested with Leica Geo Office tools (LGO) and i didn't see any problem.
In this little application you enter E,N,h in UTM coordinate system and also your zone. at the end of zone number you should add N or S for North hemisphere or South hemisphere. then press compute.
The default location that are fill in fields (this is the location of my home ;-)) may be a good guide.
