GK2LonLat {wflo}R Documentation

Converts Gauss-Kruger coordinates to longitude/latitude coordinates.

Description

This function accepts a pair of Gauss-Kruger (GK) coordinates and converts them to longitude (decimal system, east) and latitude (decimal system, north) coordinates by performing re-projection.

Usage

GK2LonLat(X, Y)

Arguments

X

a numeric value for the 'right' value in the GK coordinate system.

Y

a numeric value for the 'top' value in the GK coordinate system.

Details

Assumes that the GK zone is EPSG 31467.

Value

Returns a vector of two values where longitude is first, latitude second.
