Selected transformation

Method: NTv2

Grid Files: CHENyx06a.gsb

Remarks: For improved accuracy (0.01m) use CHENyx06 interpolation programme FINELTRA. File CHENyx06 replaced by CHENyx06a; there is a small area at the border of the data where some more real data has been introduced. swisstopo consider the change insignificant.
