EPSG:4346 DEPRECATED

ETRS89 (geocentric)

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: ETRS89 (geocentric)

Datum: European Terrestrial Reference System 1989 ensemble

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Norwegian Geodetic Institute geodetic publication 1990:1

Revision date: 2002-12-07

Scope: Geodesy.

Remarks: The distinction in usage between ETRF89 and ETRS89 is confused: although in principle conceptually different in practice both are used as synonyms.

Area of use: Europe - onshore and offshore - ETRF extent - approximately 16°W to 33°E and 33°N to 84°N.

Coordinate system: Cartesian 3D CS (geocentric). Axes: geocentric X Y Z. Orientations: X and Y in equatorial plane, X positive through intersection with prime meridian, Y through 0°N 90°E. Z axis parallel to mean earth rotation axis and positive towards North Pole. UoM: m.
