Available transformations
to EPSG:4326
EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

Selected transformation

Method: NTv2

Grid Files: NA27SCRS.GSB

Remarks: Parameter file is from NAD27 to NAD83(CSRS)v2 (1) (code 9239) assuming that NAD83(CSRS)v2 is equivalent to WGS 84 within the accuracy of the transformation. Also distributed as QUE27-98.gsb.

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: NAD27

Datum: North American Datum 1927

Ellipsoid: Clarke 1866

Scope: Cadastre, survey control and engineering survey in urban areas, typically in all municipalities that previously comprised the 73 Municipal Integrated Surveying and Mapping (MISAM) areas, also known as urban cadastral map areas. For rural areas use UTM.

Remarks: If used for rural area control markers, area of use is amended to between 116°W and 112°W; however use of NAD27 / UTM zones 11N and 12N (CRS codes 26711 and 26712) is encouraged in these rural areas.

Area of use: Canada - Alberta - between 115°30'W and 112°30'W.

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