ETRS89-CHE [CHTRS95]

Attributes

Unit: degree (supplier to define representation)

Geodetic CRS: ETRS89-CHE [CHTRS95]

Datum: Swiss Terrestrial Reference System 1995

Ellipsoid: GRS 1980

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Bundesamt für Landestopografie swisstopo; www.swisstopo.ch

Revision date: 2026-07-21

Scope: Geodesy.

Remarks: First realized through CHTRF95 and subsequently CHTRF98, with an aim to re-measure every 6 years. CHTRF98, CHTRF2004, CHTRF2010 and CHTRF2016 are all within 2cm of CHTRF95 and used for scientific applications, but for most practical purposes differences are considered insignificant. For CRS used for topographic and cadastral purposes see CH1903+ (CRS code 4150).

Area of use: Liechtenstein; Switzerland.

Coordinate system: Ellipsoidal 3D CS. Axes: latitude, longitude, ellipsoidal height. Orientations: north, east, up. UoM: degree, degree, metre.
