Available transformations
to EPSG:4269
EPSG:4269 - NAD83

Selected transformation

Method: NADCON5 (2D)

Grid Files: nadcon5.nad27.nad83_1986.alaska.lat.trn.20160901.b nadcon5.nad27.nad83_1986.alaska.lon.trn.20160901.b

Remarks: Uses NADCON5 method which expects longitudes positive east in range 0-360°; source and target CRSs have longitudes positive east in range -180° to +180°. Accuracy at 67% confidence level is 0.5m onshore, 5m nearshore and undetermined farther offshore.

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: NAD27

Datum: North American Datum 1927

Ellipsoid: Clarke 1866

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Revision date: 2008-06-23

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.
