Geodetic CRS: NAD27
Datum: North American Datum 1927
Ellipsoid: Clarke 1866
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: National Geodetic Survey, www.ngs.noaa.gov
Revision date: 2021-10-18
Scope: Geodesy.
Remarks: NADCON5 method expects longitudes 0-360°; source and target CRS longitudes in range ±180°. Accuracy at 67% confidence level is 0.15m onshore, 1m nearshore and undetermined farther offshore. For application in Gulf of Mexico refer to IOGP report 373-26.
