EPSG:20002

MWC18 Grid

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: MWC18-IRF

Datum: MWC18 Intermediate Reference Frame

Ellipsoid: GRS 1980

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Network Rail.

Revision date: 2023-08-07

Scope: Engineering survey and topographic mapping for railway applications.

Remarks: Defined through transformation ETRS89 to MWC18-IRF (1) (code 10108) and map projection MWC18-TM (code 10127). Emulates the MWC18 Snake projection applied to ETRS89 as realized through OSNet 2009.

Area of use: United Kingdom (UK) - on or related to the rail route from Manchester via Wigan and Liverpool to Chester.

Coordinate system: Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (E,N). Orientations: east, north. UoM: m.
