World Geodetic System 1984 (G1762)

Attributes

Ellipsoid: WGS 84

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: NGA STND 0036_1 0 0_WGS84_2014-10-27 and Malys et al "Compatibility of Terrestrial Reference Frames used in GNSS broadcast messages during an 8 week period of 2019".

Revision date: 2021-09-23

Scope: Geodesy. Navigation and positioning using GPS satellite system.

Remarks: Replaces WGS 84 (G1674) from 2013-10-16. Frame was redesignated WGS 84 (G1762') after coordinates of 7 NGA tracking stations were changed following station moves and antenna updates 2014-08 to 2015-06. Replaced by WGS 84 (G2139) from 2021-01-03.
