Engineering survey, topographic mapping.
State law defines system in US survey feet. See code 2254 for equivalent non-metric definition. For applications with an accuracy of better than 1m, replaced by NAD83(HARN) / SPCS.
Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (X,Y). Orientations: east, north. UoM: m.
