EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

Selected transformation

Method: Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Approximation to 1 metre of concatenated transformation ED50 to WGS 84 (14), code 8653. 8653 remains the transformation promulgated by Statens Kartverk but 1613 recommended by EPSG for practical oil industry usage.
