This is the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) Python package for projecting coordinates. It is a small shim on top of the library pyproj that again is an interface to PROJ.

Basic usage

Project a point

from coordinate_projector import Projector

projector = Projector()
 
from_srid = "4326"
to_srid = "3857"

# Paris Lat(48.8589506) Lon(2.2768485) EPSG:4326
from_east, from_north = 2.2768485, 48.8589506 

projected_east, projected_north = projector.transform(from_srid, to_srid, from_east, from_north)

# Paris Lat(6250962.06) Lon(253457.62) EPSG:3857 is in metres - 2D projection
assert abs(projected_east - 253457.62) <= 0.01
assert abs(projected_north - 6250962.06) <= 0.01 

print(f"{projected_east=}, {projected_north=}")
# projected_east=253457.6156334287, projected_north=6250962.062720417
