Geodetic CRS: NAD27(76)
Datum: North American Datum 1927 (1976)
Ellipsoid: Clarke 1866
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: Geodetic Survey of Canada http://www.geod.nrcan.gc.ca/
Revision date: 2019-09-17
Scope: Not known.
Remarks: Uses NT method which expects longitudes positive west; EPSG GeogCRSs NAD27(76) (code 4608) and NAD83 (code 4269) have longitudes positive east. May be taken as approximate transformation NAD27(76) to WGS 84 - see code 1690.
Method: NTv2
Area of use: Canada - Ontario.
