EPSG:20439

Ain el Abd / UTM zone 39N

Selected transformation

Method: Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Derivation is more precise, but no evidence that accuracy is better than Ain el Abd to WGS 84 (3). OGP recommends using Ain el Abd to WGS 84 (3).

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: Ain el Abd

Datum: Ain el Abd 1970

Ellipsoid: International 1924

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Revision date: 2018-08-29

Scope: Engineering survey, topographic mapping.

Remarks: Known in Kuwait as "KOC UTM". Used by KOC for engineering but not explorartion (see KOC Lambert, CRS code 24600). In Saudi Arabia, replaced by MTRF-2000 / UTM zone 39N (CRS code 8839).

Area of use: Kuwait - onshore east of 48°E. Saudi Arabia - onshore between 48°E and 54°E.

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