Geodetic CRS: LUREF
Datum: Luxembourg Reference Frame
Ellipsoid: International 1924
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: Administration du Cadastre et de la Topographie (ACT), https://act.public.lu
Revision date: 2026-07-21
Scope: Geodesy. Defines LUREF from 2021 to 2026.
Remarks: LUREF 2020 parameters. For an equivalent CT using the Coordinate Frame method see CT 11541. Defines LUREF from 2021-10-31 to 2026-10-31. Replaces LUREF 2014 parameters (CT 9898). Replaced by LUREF 2025 parameters (CT 11551). Info source gives this CT in reverse direction.
Method: Molodensky-Badekas (CF geocentric domain)
Area of use: Luxembourg.
