Module:Ordnance Survey coordinates
Appearance
This Lua module is used on approximately 44,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be relatively bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
This module depends on the following other modules: |
Usage
Converts a OS grid ref to a lat/long hyperlink to geohack.
{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|main|SK135733}}
← Two-letter code interpreted as OS grid ref in Great Britain{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|main|O169318}}
← One-letter code interpreted as Irish OS grid ref{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|main|439668_1175316}}
← Two digit strings interpreted as easting/northing in meters in Great Britain{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|main|i88888_99999}}
← String starting with i is easting/northing in meters in Ireland{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|main|SK135733|Miller's Dale}}
← Second argument is used as link text{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|main|SK135733_scale:25000_region:GB-DBY}}
← extra underscored parameters passed to geohack
- The
oscoord
function returns the link wrapped in a span. - The
|rawurl=
returns the simple URL, not a link. - Template that wraps main is available at {{Ordnance Survey url}}.
- For other template wrapping, see Template:Gbmapping/doc
Also converts from lat/long back to OS grid ref:
{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|WGS2OSGB|53.256538|-1.799102}}
→ SK1350073300{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|LL2OS|53.256538|-1.799102}}
→ SK1350073300{{#invoke:Ordnance Survey coordinates|LL2OS|53.256538|-1.799102|scale:25000}}
→ SK1350073300

****** ORDNANCE SURVEY TO LAT LONG FUNCTIONS ******
Ported to Lua from PHP by Wikipedia User Hike395, 18 Aug 2019
found by RWH at http://www.megalithia.com/search/llfuncshighlight.php
With thanks to Andy, G4JNT for inspiration in GEOG, and to the OSGB for their white paper on coordinate transformation
describing the iterative method used
thanks to the Ordnance survey of Ireland for details of the true and false origins of the Irish grid

v0.something 27/2/2000
v 1.01 28 June 2004
v 1.02 6 Aug 2004 line 89 add "0" to chars in ngr=stripcharsnotinbag Thx Andy
v 1.03 9 Mar 2005 Jan (Klingon) added conversion to WGS84 map datum and removed limitation of digits of the grid ref
v 1.04 10 Aug 2005 Richard correct error trapping (only manifest on malformed ngrs
This code is predicated on the assumption that your are ONLY feeding it Irish or UK Grid references.
It uses the single char prefix of Irish grid refs to tell the difference, UK grid refs have a two letter prefix.
We would like an even number of digits for the rest of the grid ref.
Anything in the NGR other than 0-9, A-Z, a-z is eliminated.
WARNING this assumes there are no decimal points in your NGR components.
The transformation from OSGB36/Ireland 1965 to WGS84 is more precise than 5 m.
The function is case insensitive
Lat/Long to Ordnance Survey conversion is at bottom of file, see further authorship there
