NAD27(76) / MTM zone 12

Canada - Ontario. , accuracy 1.0 m, code 1463 (default) [grid]

Selected transformation

Method: NTv2

Grid Files: May76v20.gsb

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.
