Pulkovo 1942 / Gauss-Kruger zone 3

Available transformations
to EPSG:4326

Selected transformation

Method: Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Derived via WGS72 values taken from SOCAR Magnavox 1502 manual. Used by AIOC 1995-1997 then replaced by the AIOC97 values (tfm code 1808). Do not confuse with AIOC95 vertical datum as used in southern Caspian Sea and at Sangachal terminal by AIOC.
