iof-xml-coords v1.0.0

iof-xml-coords

Convert the coordinates in an IOF-XML file to WGS84.

The conversion might be needed if the XML file is exported from e.g. Condes using a map with a local coordinate system.

Installation

npm install -g iof-xml-coords

Usage

iof-xml-coords [-s <projection>] <file>

Arguments

• file - The source file (reads from STDIN if not specified)

Options

• -s, --src <projection> - The source projection (default: "GK25FIN")

• -h, --help - Display help

• -V, --version - Output the version number

Projection

Currently supported projections:

• GK25FIN (ETRS89 / GK25FIN, EPSG:3879)
• TM35FIN (ETRS89 / TM35FIN, EPSG:5048)

Other projections can be specified in the Proj4js format. These can be found in for example epsg.io.

Besides the command line option, the projection can also be passed via the IOF_SRC environment variable.

Examples

Convert "ETRS89 / TM35FIN" coordinates from coursedata.xml to coursedata_wgs84.xml:

iof-xml-coords -s TM35FIN coursedata.xml > coursedata_wgs84.xml

Convert "ETRS89 / UTM zone 35N" (EPSG:3047) coordinates. Output to STDOUT.

export IOF_SRC='+proj=utm +zone=35 +ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs'

iof-xml-coords < iof.xml
