crs-l1-nyc-webmercator-cycleways
Map (reference ← swipe → agent)
0:00
The `nyc_cycleways` file came out of our tile-renderer, but our web map client can't read the coordinates as they are. It needs plain lat/lon. Can you convert them over? Please leave the attributes alone, and make sure each geometry stays a plain LineString rather than turning into a MultiLineString. Write the result as GeoParquet to `nyc_cycleways_wgs84.geoparquet`, and use `id` as the key.

The data is in EPSG:3857 (Web Mercator) and I need to convert it to WGS84 (EPSG:4326) lat/lon. The current CRS is Web Mercator (EPSG:3857). Let me make sure I keep LineStrings as LineStrings (not MultiLineString) and use `id` as the partitioning key. Let me write a Python script to do this.

The file has been successfully converted. The CRS is now EPSG:4326 (WGS84), all geometries remain LineString (not MultiLineString), and the coordinates are in lat/lon format (e.g., around -74° longitude for NYC). The attributes are preserved, and I sorted by `id` as the key.
