Changing Eastings and Northings to Longitude and Latitude

Does anyone know how to convert Easting and Northings ( British National Grid (BNG) ) to Longitude and Latitude using only Spatial Tools in Alteryx ?

 

For example using the British Geological Survey's Coordinate converter on their website..

Easting: 513490 is  Longitude: -0.367503

Northing: 175689 is Latitude: 51.46879

 

Thanks

Hi @mglbhdqalteryx , here's how to do this using the Create Points and Spatial Info tools:

This uses the EPSG:27700 map projection within the Create Points tool

Thanks @FinnCharlton, those tips have worked nicely for me and I am working on the next steps ..

 

That was my first post on the forum and I am really impressed with the speedy response.

 

Thanks again,
