[GIS] Transform Lat/Lon to LCC and vice versa

coordinate systemlatitude longitudeparameters

I need to convert lat/lon to meters as the unit of measurement to do some calculations. I found this online tool to transform my data from GEO_WGS84_Lat-Lon to LAMGe (LCC). This works for me but I have to implement the calculations in Java. I found this formulas but I don't know what I have to use for λ0 (reference longitude), Φ0 (reference latitude) and Φ1, Φ2 (the standard parallels).

The online tool says that it uses 10.5 degrees east longitude and 51 degrees north latitude for the coordinate origin.

Would this be the λ0 and Φ0? And what do I have to use as Φ1 and Φ2?

If you are trying to match the LAMGe definition from the Koordinatentransformation 4.4 online tool, you have to have all the projection parameters.

A quick look on the online tool's source website and I was able to find the metadata for the supported coordinate reference systems. Note: The link goes to the English version of the webpage.

LAMGe, EPSG::4839 ( ETRS89 / LCC Germany (N-E) )
longitude of origin: 10.5 (10° 30')
latitude of origin: 51.0 (51° 0')
standard parallel 1: 48.66666667 (48° 40')
standard parallel 2: 53.66666667 (53° 40')

Note 2: The webpage has some things wrong, like the 4326 and 4258 lines are mixed up. It's correct on the German page here.
