EPSG:3975 DEPRECATED

WGS 84 / NSIDC EASE-Grid Global

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: WGS 84

Datum: World Geodetic System 1984 ensemble

Data source: EPSG

Information source: US National Snow and Ice Data Center.

Revision date: 2009-04-25

Scope: Environmental science - used as basis for EASE grid.

Remarks: Alternative to NSIDC EASE-Grid Global, CRS code 3410. Because of application of spherical projection method to an ellipsoid model of the earth the equal area properties are not maintained. See CRS 3410 info source for equations for EASE-Grid overlay.

Area of use: World between 86°S and 86°N.

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