Name: NAD27 to NAD83 (7)
Method: NADCON5 (2D)
Grid Files: nadcon5.nad27.nad83_1986.conus.lat.trn.20160901.b nadcon5.nad27.nad83_1986.conus.lon.trn.20160901.b
Remarks: NADCON5 method expects longitudes 0-360°; source and target CRS longitudes in range ±180°. Accuracy at 67% confidence level is 0.15m onshore, 1m nearshore and undetermined farther offshore. For application in Gulf of Mexico refer to IOGP report 373-26.
