# osgrid-server - _Ordnance Survey Grid Ref Converter_
|
|
|
|
This project implements a simple REST server to allow conversion between Ordnance Survey
|
|
grid references and latitude / longitude.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to avoid environmental or Node versioning problems is to start the server using Docker:
|
|
|
|
docker run -d --rm --name osgrid-server -p 9090:9090 paulcager/osgrid-server
|
|
|
|
A grid reference may then be converted to a lat / lon:
|
|
|
|
$ curl http://localhost:9090/v4/gridref/SU37241550
|
|
{"osGridRef":"SU37241550","easting":437240,"northing":115500,"lat":50.93774069083967,"lon":-1.4713807843405298}
|
|
|
|
Or a lat/lon converted to a grid reference:
|
|
|
|
$ curl http://localhost:9090/v4/latlon/50.9378,-1.4713
|
|
{"osGridRef":"SU37241550","easting":437246,"northing":115507,"lat":50.9378,"lon":-1.4713}
