Geodetic CRS: ETRF2014
Datum: European Terrestrial Reference Frame 2014
Ellipsoid: GRS 1980
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: Häkli et al., "NKG2020 transformation: An updated transformation between dynamic and static reference frames in the Nordic and Baltic countries"; Journal of Geodetic Science 2023; 13: 20220155, https://doi.org/10.1515/jogs-2022-0155.
Revision date: 2025-08-29
Scope: Change of coordinate epoch in 3-dimensions (φλh).
Remarks: Replaces NKG_RF03vel model. Accuracy estimated as 0.1, 0.1, and 0.4 mm/year for the North, East, and Up components, respectively. Because the difference in coordinates that results from application of the model is small (under a decimetre), although the interpolation CRS is given as ETRF2014 any realization of ETRS89 (including NKG_ETRF14) may be used as the interpolation CRS.
Method: Point motion (geocen domain) using NEU velocity grid (Gravsoft)
