Method Details

__init__ (self, zone=0, EN='', easting=0, northing=0, band='', datum=Datum(name='WGS84', ellipsoid=Ellipsoids.WGS84, transform=Tran..., resolution=0, **name)
(Constructor)

 

New Mgrs Military grid reference.

Arguments:
  • zone - The 6° longitudinal zone (int), 1..60 covering 180°W..180°E or 0 for polar regions or (str) with the zone number and latitudinal band letter.
  • EN - Two-letter EN digraph (str), grid tile using only the AA aka MGRS-New (row) lettering scheme.
  • easting - Easting (meter), within 100 Km grid tile.
  • northing - Northing (meter), within 100 Km grid tile.
  • band - Optional, latitudinal band or polar region letter (str), 'C'|..|'X' covering 80°S..84°N (no 'I'|'O'), 'A'|'B' at the south or 'Y'|'Z' at the north pole.
  • datum - This reference's datum (Datum, Ellipsoid, Ellipsoid2 or a_f2Tuple).
  • resolution - Optional resolution (meter), 0 for default.
  • name - Optional name=NN (str).
Raises:
  • MGRSError - Invalid zone, EN, easting, northing, band or resolution.
  • TypeError - Invalid datum.
Overrides: object.__init__

__str__ (self)
(Informal representation operator)

 

Default str(self).

Overrides: object.__str__
(inherited documentation)

parse (self, strMGRS, **name)

 

Parse a string to a similar Mgrs instance.

Arguments:
  • strMGRS - The MGRS reference (str), see function parseMGRS.
  • name - Optional name=NN (str), overriding this name.
Returns:
The similar instance (Mgrs).
Raises:

toLatLon (self, LatLon=None, center=True, **toLatLon_kwds)

 

Convert this MGRS grid reference to a UTM coordinate.

Arguments:
  • LatLon - Optional, ellipsoidal class to return the geodetic point (LatLon) or None.
  • center - Optionally, return the grid's center or lower left corner (bool).
  • toLatLon_kwds - Optional, additional Utm.toLatLon and LatLon keyword arguments.
Returns:
A LatLon instance or if LatLon is None a LatLonDatum5Tuple(lat, lon, datum, gamma, scale).
Raises:
  • TypeError - If LatLon is not ellipsoidal.
  • UTMError - Invalid meridional radius or H-value.

See Also: Methods Mgrs.toUtm and Utm.toLatLon.

toRepr (self, fmt='[%s]', sep=', ', **prec)

 

Return a string representation of this MGRS grid reference.

Arguments:
  • fmt - Enclosing backets format (str).
  • sep - Separator between name:values (str).
  • prec - Precision (int), see method Mgrs.toStr.
Returns:
This Mgrs as "[Z:[dd]B, G:EN, E:easting, N:northing]" (str), with sep ", ".
Raises:
  • ValueError - Invalid prec.
Overrides: named._Named.toRepr

Note: MGRS grid references are truncated, not rounded (unlike UTM/UPS coordinates).

toStr (self, prec=0, sep='')

 

Return this MGRS grid reference as a string.

Arguments:
  • prec - Precision, the number of decimal digits (int) or if negative, the number of units to drop, like MGRS PRECISION.
  • sep - Optional separator to join (str) or None to return an unjoined 3-tuple of strs.
Returns:
This Mgrs as 4-tuple ("dd]B", "EN", "easting", "northing") if sep=NN or "[dd]B EN easting northing" (str) with sep " ".
Raises:
  • ValueError - Invalid prec.
Overrides: named._Named.toStr
Notes:
  • Both easting and northing strings are NN or missing if prec <= -5.
  • MGRS grid references are truncated, not rounded (unlike UTM/UPS).

toUps (self, Ups=<class 'pygeodesy.ups.Ups'>, center=False)

 

Convert this MGRS grid reference to a UPS coordinate.

Arguments:
  • Ups - Optional class to return the UPS coordinate (Ups) or None.
  • center - Optionally, center easting and northing by the resolution (bool).
Returns:
A Ups instance or if Ups is None a UtmUps5Tuple(zone, hemipole, easting, northing, band).
Raises:
  • MGRSError - This MGRS is a non-polar UTM reference.

toUtm (self, Utm=<class 'pygeodesy.utm.Utm'>, center=False)

 

Convert this MGRS grid reference to a UTM coordinate.

Arguments:
  • Utm - Optional class to return the UTM coordinate (Utm) or None.
  • center - Optionally, center easting and northing by the resolution (bool).
Returns:
A Utm instance or if Utm is None a UtmUps5Tuple(zone, hemipole, easting, northing, band).
Raises:
  • MGRSError - This MGRS is a polar UPS reference.

toUtmUps (self, Utm=<class 'pygeodesy.utm.Utm'>, Ups=<class 'pygeodesy.ups.Ups'>, center=False)

 

Convert this MGRS grid reference to a UTM or UPS coordinate.

Arguments:
  • Utm - Optional class to return the UTM coordinate (Utm) or None.
  • Ups - Optional class to return the UPS coordinate (Utm) or None.
  • center - Optionally, center easting and northing by the resolution (bool).
