Geodetic CRS: NKG_ETRF14
Datum: Nordic Geodetic Commission ETRF14
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: 2025-08-24
Scope: Geodesy.
Remarks: Nordic Geodetic Commission (NKG) 2020 transformation. Replaces NKG2008 transformation. Because the difference between coordinates referenced to NKG_ETRF14 and coordinates referenced to ETRS89-NO EUREF89 is small (under a decimetre), although the interpolation CRS is given as NKG_ETRF14 any realization of ETRS89 (including ETRF2014 and ETRS89-NO EUREF89) may be used as the interpolation CRS. Scale difference in ppb where 1/billion = 1E-9.
Method: Geocen translations by grid (gtg) & Geocen translations NEU velocities (gtg)
Area of use: Norway - onshore.
