EPSG:1573

NAD27 to NAD83 (6)

Attributes

Geodetic CRS: NAD27

Datum: North American Datum 1927

Ellipsoid: Clarke 1866

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Geodetic Service of Quebec.

Revision date: 2019-09-17

Scope: Transformation of coordinates at 1m to 2m level of accuracy.

Remarks: Also distributed with file name QUE27-83.gsb. Replaces NAD27 to NAD83 (5) (code 1462). Uses NT method which expects longitudes positive west; EPSG GeogCRSs NAD27 (code 4267) and NAD83 (code 4269) have longitudes positive east.

Method: NTv2

Area of use: Canada - Quebec.
