Socrata was acquired by Tyler Technologies in 2018 and is now the Data and Insights division of Tyler. The platform is still powered by the same software formerly known as Socrata but you will see references to Data & Insights going forward.

reproject

Function: reproject
  reproject a geometry from one projection to another.
  If the geometry came from a shapefile, it will have the projection information
  associated with it.
  If the geometry does not have projection information associated with it,
  you will need to call `set_projection(geometry, projection)` on it to explicitly
  give it a known projection. Geometries do not have projection information associated with
  them if they come from a file format other than an ESRI Shapefile.
  The default projection assigned to geometries with no projection information is WGS84.

  Note that if you reproject into something other than WGS84, the map will not render
  on the web.

  See spatialreference.org to look up projection definitions.

Examples:

  reproject(a_wgs84_point, '+proj=aea +lat_1=34 +lat_2=47 +lat_0=43 +lon_0=-120 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +units=m +no_defs')
  -- Result: {"type":"Point","coordinates":[-175581.00675423793,515668.2819819323]}

  reproject(to_point('POINT (-73.138260 40.792240)'), '+init=epsg:3627')
  -- Result: {"type":"Point","coordinates":[372728.3308536674,69825.24782297359]}

  --   set_projection is used here to explicitly say that I know the data source's geometries are in EPSG:3627 projection,
  and to use that as the source projection when reprojecting to EPSG:4326

  reproject(set_projection(to_point('POINT (372728.3308536674 69825.24782297359)'), '+init=epsg:3627'), '+init=epsg:4326')
  -- Result: {"type":"Point","coordinates":[-73.13826,40.79224]}

  reproject(set_projection(to_point('POINT(752235200 34768994)'), '+proj=aea +lat_1=34 +lat_2=47 +lat_0=43 +lon_0=-120 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +units=m +no_defs'), '+init=epsg:4326')
  -- Result: {"type":"reprojection_error","english":"Failed to reproject that value, are the x and y out of range for that projection?","data":{"message":"Failed to reproject that value, are the x and y out of range for that projection?"}}
