EPSG:9866 - MRH21-IRF

  • United Kingdom (UK) code 9867 (default) [grid]

Selected transformation

Method: NTv2

Grid Files: TN15-ETRS89-to-MRH21-IRF.gsb

Remarks: In conjunction with MRH21-TM map projection (code 9868) applied to MRH21-IRF (code 9866), emulates the MRH21 Snake projection. Applied to ETRS89 (as realized through the OSNet v2009) defines MRH21-IRF hence is errorless.

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: ETRS89

Datum: European Terrestrial Reference System 1989 ensemble

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen (KMS), Copenhagen.

Revision date: 2020-04-30

Scope: Engineering survey.

Remarks: Introduced in 2010. For topographic mapping see ETRS89 / Faroe Lambert (CRS code 3145). For cadastral survey see fk89 (CRS code 3173). In due course this CRS (5316) is expected to replace these other CRSs.

Area of use: Faroe Islands - onshore and offshore.

Coordinate system: Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (E,N). Orientations: east, north. UoM: m.
