BD72 / Belgian Lambert 72 -- Belgium

Selected transformation

Method: Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Scale difference is given by information source as 0.999999. Given in this record in ppm to assist application usage. Very similar parameter values (to slightly less precision) used for BD72 to ETRS89: see code 1652.

Revision date: 2021-09-23

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: BD72

Datum: Reseau National Belge 1972

Ellipsoid: International 1924

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: IGN Brussels; www.ngi.be/

Revision date: 2021-06-17

Scope: Engineering survey, topographic mapping.

Remarks: Introduced in 2000 as an alternative to CRS code 31300 to avoid the special projection method LCC (2SP Belgium) (code 9803). If software cannot handle latitude of origin 90°N, use latitude of origin = 50°47'57.704"N with Nf = 165372.956 m.

Area of use: Belgium - onshore.

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

Center coordinates
