ETRS89-IRE [ETRF2000] / UTM zone 29N

Available transformations
to EPSG:11461
EPSG:11461 - Dart+26-IRF

Selected transformation

Name: ETRS89-IRE [ETRF2000] to Dart+26-IRF (1)

Method: NTv2

Grid Files: ETRS89-09_to_Dplus26-IRF.gsb

Remarks: In conjunction with the Dart+26-TM map projection (code 11463) applied to Dart+26-IRF (code 11461), emulates the Dart+26 Snake projection. Applied to ETRS89 (as realized through Irenet ETRF2000) defines Dart+26-IRF hence is errorless.
