Hmm, the false northing value of 10000000 seems a bit high for this area. I bet that's the issue.

The 'S' in the projection definition is throwing me off. I thought UTM zones were numbered north and south of the equator, not based on row.

I believe the false northing value should be 0, not 10000000. That could be causing the issue with the data drawing in the wrong location.

I agree with Brendan. The 'S' in Zone 15S should indicate UTM Row S, not south of the equator.

I think the projection definition is wrong because the data is drawing near the North Pole.
