Package: utm-no-numpy
Bidirectional UTM-WGS84 converter for python.Utm optionally requires numpy, but in Pythonic EAFFTP style, always attempts to import it even when it
is not installed.  Utm itself is otherwise a pure Python package, and is also popular in
environments (e.g. Rhino/Grasshopper) that do not support C extensions such as numpy.  It even
already has alternative code to use when numpy cannot be imported.In one of those environments the multitude of user plug-ins, the ad-hoc import system, and the design
of 3rd party plug-ins, can easily cause dependency conflicts.  One such plug-in added a directory
of CPython 3 C extensions, including numpy, to IronPython 2.7’s sys.path, causing the normal utm to crash.This fork of utm does not try to fix the world; it simply removes utm’s attempt to import numpy.Usage>>>importutm_no_numpyasutmLatitude/Longitude to UTMConvert a(latitude, longitude)tuple into an UTM coordinate:>>>utm.from_latlon(51.2,7.5)(395201.3103811303,5673135.241182375,32,'U')The syntax isutm.from_latlon(LATITUDE, LONGITUDE).The return has the form(EASTING, NORTHING, ZONE_NUMBER, ZONE_LETTER).UTM to Latitude/LongitudeConvert an UTM coordinate into a(latitude, longitude)tuple:>>>utm.to_latlon(340000,5710000,32,'U')(51.51852098408468,6.693872395145327)The syntax isutm.to_latlon(EASTING, NORTHING, ZONE_NUMBER, ZONE_LETTER).The return has the form(LATITUDE, LONGITUDE).Since the zone letter is not strictly needed for the conversion you may also
thenorthernparameter instead, which is a named parameter and can be set
to eitherTrueorFalse. Have a look at the unit tests to see how it
can be used.The UTM coordinate system is explained onthisWikipedia page.SpeedThe library has been compared to the more generic pyproj library by running
the unit test suite through pyproj instead of utm. These are the results:with pyproj (without projection cache): 4.0 - 4.5 secwith pyproj (with projection cache): 0.9 - 1.0 secwith utm: 0.4 - 0.5 secDevelopmentCreate a newvirtualenvand install the library viapip install-e..
After that install thepytestpackage viapip install pytestand run
the unit test suite by callingpytest.ChangelogseeCHANGELOG.rstfileAuthorsBart van Andel <bavanandel@gmail.com>Tobias Bieniek <Tobias.Bieniek@gmx.de>Torstein I.
