EPSG:3074

NAD83 / Maine CS2000 West

Selected transformation

Method: NTv2

Grid Files: NAD83-98.gsb

Remarks: Uses NT method which expects longitudes positive west; EPSG GeogCRSs NAD83 (code 4269) and NAD83(CSRS) (code 4617) have longitudes positive east. Can be taken as an approximate transformation NAD83 to WGS 84 - see code 1696.

Scope: Engineering survey, topographic mapping.

Remarks: In Maine Department of Transportation and other State agencies replaces CS27 and SPCS83 from 1/1/2001. For applications with an accuracy of better than 1m, replaced by NAD83(HARN) / CS2000.

Area of use: United States (USA) - Maine west of approximately 69°40'W. The area is bounded by the following: Beginning at the point determined by the intersection of the Maine State line and the County Line between Aroostook and Somerset Counties, thence following the Somerset County line Easterly to the Northwest corner of the Somerset and Piscataquis county line, thence Southerly along this county line to the northeast corner of the Athens town line, thence westerly along the town line between Brighton Plantation and Athens to the westerly corner of Athens, and continuing southerly to the southwest corner of the town of Athens where it meets the Cornville town line, thence westerly along the Cornville - Solon town line to the intersection of the Cornville - Madison town line, thence southerly and westerly following the Madison town line to the intersection of the Norridgewock - Skowhegan town line, thence southerly along the Skowhegan town line to the Fairfield town line, thence easterly along the Fairfield town line to the Clinton town line (being determined by the Kennebec River), thence southerly along the Kennebec River to the Augusta city line, thence easterly along the city line to the Windsor town line, thence southerly along the Augusta - Windsor town line to the northwest corner of the Lincoln County line, thence southerly along the westerly Lincoln county line to the boundary of the State of Maine as determined by Maritime law, thence following the State boundary on the westerly side of the state to the point of beginning.

Coordinate system: Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (X,Y). Orientations: east, north. UoM: m.
