# gk2kml

## Convert Gauss-Kru(e)ger Coordinates to WGS84

Convert a GK Coordinate to WGS84 and (optionally) export
output to a .kml file.

Example usage:

```text
./gk2kml.py -z 5 -w out 4973819 5403153
48.544705978693315, 7.869524492879161
Writing to kml file: out.kml
```
Easting and Northing value should be 7 chars, if 6, the programm will append a 0.

$LON, $LAT and $NAME in template.kml will be replaced.

### Usage

```text
usage: gk2kml.py [-h] [-z [ZONE]] [-w [WRITE]] coord coord
```

positional arguments:
  coord                 
                        [easting northing] ([Rechtswert Hochwert])

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -z [ZONE], --zone [ZONE]
                        
                        Input Gauss-Kruger Zone (Default: 3)
                        2 = 3deg Zone 2: Germany
                        3 = 3deg Zone 3: Germany onshore between 7°30'E and 10°30'E
                        4 = 3deg Zone 4: Germany onshore between 10°30'E and 13°30'E
                        5 = 3deg Zone 5: Germany onshore east of 13°30'E
  -w [WRITE], --write [WRITE]
                        Write to file [filename] (.kml gets attached)
