Name: Amersfoort to ETRS89 (7)
Method: NTv2
Grid Files: rdtrans2008.gsb
Remarks: Replaced by Amersfoort to ETRS89-NLD [AGRS2010] (9) (CT code 9282). Consistent to within 1mm with official RDNAPTRANS(TM)2008 at ground level onshore and at MSL offshore. The horizontal deviation using this NTv2 grid is approximately 1mm per 50m height difference from ground level or MSL.
