EPSG:6199

Egypt 1930

Attributes

Ellipsoid: International 1924

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Revision date: 2008-06-24

Scope: Geodesy.

Remarks: Note that Egypt 1930 uses the International 1924 ellipsoid, unlike the Egypt 1907 datum (code 6229) which uses the Helmert ellipsoid. Oil industry references to the Egypt 1930 datum name and the Helmert ellipsoid probably mean Egypt 1907 datum.

Area of use: Egypt - onshore.
