Scope: Geodesy.

Remarks: Replaces older local geographic 2D systems IGN56 Lifou, IGN72 Grande Terre, ST87 Ouvea, IGN53 Mare, ST84 Ile des Pins, ST71 Belep and NEA74 Noumea (CRS codes 4633, 4641-44, 4662 and 4750). Replaced by RGNC15 (CRS code 10308).

Area of use: New Caledonia - onshore and offshore. Isle de Pins, Loyalty Islands, Huon Islands, Belep archipelago, Chesterfield Islands, and Walpole.

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.
