# Breasal

A Ruby gem that converts both British and Irish Eastings and northing to WGS84 latitude and longitude.

Based on the work by [Andrew Sprinz at Lambeth Council](https://github.com/LambethCouncil/OSGB36_Converter), and created in anger as part of work on [UK Postcodes](https://github.com/theodi/uk-postcodes)

Breasal is the Welsh and Cornish God of all earth, so I thought him suitably Celtic to cover all the British isles.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem 'breasal'

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install breasal

## Usage

Provide an easting, northing and coordinate type (either `:gb` or `:ie` - default is `:gb`):

    en = Breasal::EastingNorthing.new(easting: 412617, northing: 308885, type: :gb)
  
Get the WGS84 latlng:

    en.to_wgs84 # => {:latitude=>52.67752501534847, :longitude=>-1.8148108086293673}
