Name: S-JTSK to ETRS89-SVK [SKTRF09] (6)
Grid Files: Slovakia_JTSK03_to_JTSK.LAS Slovakia_JTSK03_to_JTSK.LOS
Remarks: Recommended method of a transformation from S-JTSK to ETRS89 in Slovakia. For reverse transformation see ETRS89-SVK [SKTRF09] to S-JTSK (5) (code 8442). Both together replace S-JTSK to ETRS89 (4) (code 4827).
Information source: Geodesy, Cartography and Cadastre Authority of Slovak Republic (UGKK SR).
Revision date: 2025-12-16
Unit: metre
Geodetic CRS: S-JTSK
Datum: System of the Unified Trigonometrical Cadastral Network
Ellipsoid: Bessel 1841
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: Research Institute for Geodesy Topography and Cartography (VUGTK), Prague; Land Survey Office (ZU), Prague. www.cuzk.cz/zu; and Geodesy, Cartography and Cadastre Authority of Slovak Republic (UGKK SR).
Revision date: 2024-03-06
Scope: Cadastre in Slovakia.
Remarks: Equivalent to CRS code 2065 but referenced to Greenwich meridian. In Slovakia remains the legal system for cadastre but for non-cadastral purposes replaced by CRS 8352. In Czechia remains the legal system but see CRS 5515 for a scientific working system.
Area of use: Czechia; Slovakia.
