Transformez

Global vertical datum transformations, simplified.

Version License Python PyPI version Conda Version Project Chat

Transformez is a standalone Python engine for converting geospatial data between vertical datums (e.g., MLLWNAVD88Ellipsoid).

Originally developed as the core transformation engine for the CUDEM project, Transformez has evolved into a standalone datum transformation suite.


📦 Installation

Install Transformez Install the transformez python package:

pip install transformez

Install HTDP The NGS Horizontal Time-Dependent Positioning (HTDP) software is required to perform highly accurate plate tectonic and frame transformations, you can install it with transformez!:

transformez htdp install

🐄 Quickstart

Generate a vertical shift grid for anywhere on Earth.

# Transform MLLW to WGS84 Ellipsoid in Norton Sound, AK

transformez grid -R -166/-164/63/64 -E 1s -I mllw -O 4979

Transform a raster directly. Transformez reads the bounds/resolution from the file.

transformez raster my_dem.tif -I mllw -O 5703

Integrate directly into your fetchez pipeline.

# Download GEBCO and shift EGM96 to WGS84 on the fly
fetchez gebco ... --hook transformez:datum_in=5773,datum_out=4979
