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: 2025-08-29
Scope: Geodesy.
Remarks: Nordic Geodetic Commission (NKG) 2020 transformation. Replaces NKG2008 transformation. Because the difference in coordinates between NKG_ETRF14 and ETRS89-DNK is small (under a decimetre), although the interpolation CRS is given as NKG_ETRF14, any realization of ETRS89 (including ETRF2014 and ETRS89-DNK) may be used as the interpolation CRS. Scale difference in ppb where 1/billion = 1E-9.
Method: Position Vector (geocen) & Geocen translations NEU velocities (gtg)
Area of use: Denmark - onshore and offshore.
