Transform coordinates from one coordinate system to another.

Package Exports

  • @pusky/transform-coordinates

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@pusky/transform-coordinates) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

transform-coordinates

Transform coordinates from one coordinate system to another. Just a wrapper around proj4 and epsg-index.

Installing

npm install transform-coordinates

Rationale

proj4 is a battle-proven tool for converting from one any coordinate system into any other. You need to specify a long and complicated string for both system though, to tell proj4 how to convert.

epsg.io has an index of those strings. epsg-index is an offline copy of them.

This module glues together proj4 and epsg-index and returns a clean API.

Usage

const transformation = require('transform-coordinates')

const transform = transformation('EPSG:4326', '3068') // WGS 84 to Soldner Berlin

console.error(transform.forward({x: 13.4105, y: 52.5034}))
// {
// 	x: 25405.407133664165,
// 	y: 19607.826100560924,
// 	z: -40.94089552294463
// }

transformation(from, to) returns a proj4 object with forward() and inverse().
