== Usage ==

Converts a OS grid ref to a lat/long hyperlink to geohack.

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|main|SK135733<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> ← Two-letter code interpreted as OS grid ref in Great Britain

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|main|O169318<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> ← One-letter code interpreted as Irish OS grid ref

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|main|439668_1175316<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> ← Two digit strings interpreted as easting/northing in meters in Great Britain

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|main|i88888_99999<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> ← String starting with i is easting/northing in meters in Ireland

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|main|SK135733|Miller's Dale<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> ← Second argument is used as link text

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|main|SK135733_scale:25000_region:GB-DBY<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> ← extra underscored parameters passed to geohack

* The <code>oscoord</code> function returns the link wrapped in a span.

* The {{para|rawurl}} returns the simple URL, not a link.

* Template that wraps main is available at {{tl|Ordnance Survey url}}.

* For other template wrapping, see [[Template:Gbmapping/doc]]

Also converts from lat/long back to OS grid ref:

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|WGS2OSGB|53.256538|-1.799102<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> → SK1350073300

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|LL2OS|53.256538|-1.799102<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> → {{OS coord|SK1350073300}}

:<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|LL2OS|53.256538|-1.799102|scale:25000<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> → {{OS coord|SK1350073300_scale:25000}}
