DHDN / 3-degree Gauss-Kruger zone 2

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: DHDN

Datum: Deutsches Hauptdreiecksnetz

Ellipsoid: Bessel 1841

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie via EuroGeographics; http://crs.bkg.bund.de/crs-eu/

Revision date: 2012-01-21

Scope: Cadastre, engineering survey, topographic mapping.

Remarks: Zone width 3 degrees. Also used offshore between 4.5°E and 7.5°E by State Geological Surveys. Not used offshore in oil industry. See CRS code 5676 for variant with axes order reversed to easting before northing for use in GIS applications.

Area of use: Germany - former West Germany onshore west of 7°30'E - states of Niedersachsen, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Rheinland-Pfalz, Saarland.

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