I'm trying to understand the math behind this transformation. I should note that I've been able to perform the transformation using geopandas, but I'd like to understand what is going on under the hood.



I've got this dataset of ZIP code polygons from NYC open data, that appears to be using NAD83 / New York Long Island (ftUS) (EPSG:2263), and I'm trying to transform it to WGS84 (EPSG:4326).



How do I turn (for example) (986038.6614370644, 213051.06312088) into (-73.99354429600449, 40.75145227487899).

  • Use the available modules.. the math is quite complicated. OGR as a part of GDAL contains OSR which is an open source suite of utilities and APIs available for various languages. From memory NAD83 needs a geographic transformation to get to WGS84 (but I'm not an expert on Northern Hemisphere datums) read a bit more here: gis.stackexchange.com/questions/88262/… . If you have Esri software you will need to specify the datum transformation which could be mathematical or a grid of displacement vectors (eg: NTv2).
