NAME

ms2tiles -- TMS/Google tile calculations

SYNOPSIS

        ms2tiles <options>

OPTIONS

-z, --zindex <arg>
Set tile z-index.
-r, --range <arg>
Show tile range which covers a given figure. Figure is a point ([lon,lat]), rectangle ([<lon>,<lat>,<width>,<height>]) line ([[lon1,lat1],[lon1,lat1],...]), multi-segment line in WGS84 coordinates, or a geodata file with tracks/waypoints.
--cover <arg>
Show all tiles which cover a given figure. Figure is set in the same way as in the --range option.
-t, --tiles <arg>
Show coordinate range for a given tile "[x,y]" or a tile range "[x,y,w,h]". If --tiles option is combined with --cover or --range, program returns with exit code 0 or 1 depending on whether the figure or its bounding is covered with the tile or the tile range.
-G, --google
By default the program works with TMS tiles. Use --google option to work with Google tiles instead.
-c, --center
Instead of printing a coordinate range print its central point.
-h, --help
Show help message.
--pod
Show help message as POD template.

EXAMPLES

A point with coordinates lon=69.1, lat=36.1 is located on the TMS tile with z=13, x=5668, y=4977:

        $ ms2tiles -z 13 -r "[69.1,36.1]"
        [5668,4977,1,1]

A coordinate range 1x1 degree starting at lon=69, lat=36 is covered by 23x29 Google tiles with z=13, starting with tile x=5666, y=3188:

        $ ms2tiles -G -z 13 -r "[69,36,1,1]"
        [5666,3188,23,29]

Finding a coordinate range for a TMS tile x=5666, y=4975, z=13

        $ ms2tiles -z 13 -t "[5666,4975]"
        [68.9941406,35.9957854,0.0439453125,0.0355463899]

Finding center of a tile:

        $ ms2tiles -z 13 -c -t "[5666,4975]"
        [69.0161133,36.0135586]

Checking if a tile touches a coordinate range:

        $ ms2tiles -z 13 -t "[5666,4975]" -r "[69,36,1,1]"; echo $?
        0
        $ ms2tiles -z 13 -t "[5666,4975]" -r "[59,36,1,1]"; echo $?
        1
