.. _cs2cs:
================================================================================
cs2cs
================================================================================
.. only:: html
Filter for transformations between two coordinate reference systems.
Synopsis
********
**cs2cs** [**-eEfIlrstvwW** [args]] [*+opt[=arg]* ...] [+to *+opt[=arg]* ...] file ...
or
**cs2cs** [**-eEfIlrstvwW** [args]] {source_crs} +to {target_crs} file ...
where {source_crs} or {target_crs} is a PROJ string, a WKT string or a AUTHORITY:CODE
(where AUTHORITY is the name of a CRS authority and CODE the code of a CRS
found in the proj.db database), expressing a coordinate reference system.
.. versionadded:: 6.0.0
or
**cs2cs** [**-eEfIlrstvwW** [args]] {source_crs} {target_crs}
.. versionadded:: 6.0.0
Description
***********
:program:`cs2cs` performs transformation between the source and destination
cartographic coordinate reference system on a set of input points. The coordinate
reference system transformation can include translation between projected and
geographic coordinates as well as the application of datum shifts.
The following control parameters can appear in any order:
.. program:: cs2cs
.. option:: -I
Method to specify inverse translation, convert from *+to* coordinate system to
the primary coordinate system defined.
.. option:: -t<a>
Where *a* specifies a character employed as the first character to denote a control
line to be passed through without processing. This option applicable to
ASCII input only. (# is the default value).
.. option:: -d <n>
.. versionadded:: 5.2.0
Specify the number of decimals in the output.
.. option:: -e <string>
Where *string* is an arbitrary string to be output if an error is detected during
data transformations. The default value is a three character string: ``*\t*``.
.. option:: -E
Causes the input coordinates to be copied to the output line prior to
printing the converted values.
.. option:: -l<[=id]>
List projection identifiers that can be selected with *+proj*. ``cs2cs -l=id``
gives expanded description of projection *id*, e.g. ``cs2cs -l=merc``.
.. option:: -lp
List of all projection id that can be used with the *+proj* parameter.
Equivalent to ``cs2cs -l``.
.. option:: -lP
Expanded description of all projections that can be used with the *+proj*
parameter.
.. option:: -le
List of all ellipsoids that can be selected with the *+ellps* parameters.
.. option:: -lu
List of all distance units that can be selected with the *+units* parameter.
.. option:: -r
This options reverses the order of the expected input from
longitude-latitude or x-y to latitude-longitude or y-x.
.. option:: -s
This options reverses the order of the output from x-y or longitude-latitude
to y-x or latitude-longitude.
.. option:: -f <format>
Where *format* is a printf format string to control the form of the output values.
For inverse projections, the output will be in degrees when this option is
employed. If a format is specified for inverse projection the output data
will be in decimal degrees. The default format is ``"%.2f"`` for forward
projection and DMS for inverse.
.. option:: -w<n>
Where *n* is the number of significant fractional digits to employ for seconds
output (when the option is not specified, ``-w3`` is assumed).
.. option:: -W<n>
Where *n* is the number of significant fractional digits to employ for seconds
output. When ``-W`` is employed the fields will be constant width
with leading zeroes.
.. option:: -v
Causes a listing of cartographic control parameters tested for and used by
the program to be printed prior to input data.
.. only:: man
The *+opt* run-line arguments are associated with cartographic
parameters.
.. only:: html
The *+opt* run-line arguments are associated with cartographic
parameters. Usage varies with projection and for a complete description
consult the :ref:`projection pages <projections>`.
The :program:`cs2cs` program requires two coordinate reference system (CRS) definitions. The first (or
primary is defined based on all projection parameters not appearing after the
*+to* argument. All projection parameters appearing after the *+to* argument
are considered the definition of the second CRS. If there is no
second CRS defined, a geographic CRS based on the
datum and ellipsoid of the source CRS is assumed. Note that the
source and destination CRS can both of same or different nature (geographic,
projected, compound CRS), or one of each and may have the same or different datums.
When using a WKT definition or a AUTHORITY:CODE, the axis order of the CRS will
be enforced. So for example if using EPSG:4326, the first value expected (or
returned) will be a latitude.
Internally, :program:`cs2cs` uses the :c:func:`proj_create_crs_to_crs` function
to compute the appropriate coordinate operation, so implementation details of
this function directly impact the results returned by the program.
The environment parameter :envvar:`PROJ_LIB` establishes the
directory for resource files (database, datum shift grids, etc.)
One or more files (processed in left to right order) specify the source of
data to be transformed. A ``-`` will specify the location of processing standard
input. If no files are specified, the input is assumed to be from stdin.
For input data the two data values must be in the first two white space
separated fields and when both input and output are ASCII all trailing portions
of the input line are appended to the output line.
Input geographic data (longitude and latitude) must be in DMS or decimal
degrees format and input cartesian data must be in units consistent with the
ellipsoid major axis or sphere radius units. Output geographic coordinates will
normally be in DMS format (use ``-f %.12f`` for decimal degrees with 12 decimal
places), while projected (cartesian) coordinates will be in linear
(meter, feet) units.
Use of remote grids
-------------------
.. versionadded:: 7.0.0
If the :envvar:`PROJ_NETWORK` environment variable is set to ``ON``,
:program:`cs2cs` will attempt to use remote grids stored on CDN (Content
Delivery Network) storage, when they are not available locally.
Examples
********
Using PROJ strings
------------------
The following script
::
cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=NAD83 +to +proj=utm +zone=10 +datum=NAD27 -r <<EOF
45d15'33.1" 111.5W
45d15.551666667N -111d30
+45.25919444444 111d30'000w
EOF
will transform the input NAD83 geographic coordinates into NAD27 coordinates in
the UTM projection with zone 10 selected. The geographic values of this
example are equivalent and meant as examples of various forms of DMS input.
The x-y output data will appear as three lines of:
::
1402293.44 5076292.68 0.00
Using EPSG codes
----------------
Transforming from WGS 84 latitude/longitude (in that order) to UTM Zone 31N/WGS 84
::
cs2cs EPSG:4326 EPSG:32631 <<EOF
45N 2E
EOF
outputs
::
421184.70 4983436.77 0.00
