Method: Geocentric translations (geog2D domain)
Remarks: Used as part of NAD27 to/from WGS 84 transformation for offshore oil operations - see code 8647.
Information source: Various oil industry sources.
Revision date: 2003-02-25
Unit: metre
Geodetic CRS: NAD83
Datum: North American Datum 1983
Ellipsoid: GRS 1980
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: Statistics Canada.
Revision date: 2009-04-26
Scope: Transformation of coordinates at 5m level of accuracy.
Remarks: Data may sometimes be referenced to NAD83(CSRS) / Canada Atlas Lambert (see CRS code 3979) which is then called "NAD83 / Canada Lambert". At the scales involved the difference of under 2 metres between the two CRSs may not be significant.
Coordinate system: Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (E,N). Orientations: east, north. UoM: m.
