Slovenia Geodetic Datum 1996

Attributes

Ellipsoid: GRS 1980

Prime meridian: Greenwich

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Geodetska uprava Republike Slovenije, http://www.gu.gov.si

Revision date: 2025-12-16

Scope: Geodesy, topographic mapping.

Remarks: The Slovenian ETRS89 realization D96 was originally determined through EUREF GPS campaigns in 1994, 1995 and 1996, the stations in which over time have shown some instability. To remedy this, the realization was updated in 2016 (ETRS89/D17, IGb08 at epoch 2016.75, aligned to ETRF2000 in accordance with the EUREF conventions).. Coordinate differences with the previous realization were up to 8 cm; consequently a hybrid realization D96-17 was implemented. D96-17 preserves geometry from the latest realization (D17) but minimizes the coordinate differences with the previous realization (D96). Formally, the D96 realization is unchanged, but in practice the realization is now carried by the D96-17 coordinates of the SIGNAL CORS stations. For practical purposes D96-17 coordinates are considered to be consistent with D96.

Area of use: Slovenia - onshore and offshore.
