  • Papua New Guinea , accuracy 2.0 m, code 5553 (default) [3]

Selected transformation

Method: Geocentric translations (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Exact in 1994 but due to significant and variable tectonic activity in PNG, in 2011 PNG94 and WGS 84 differ generally by 2m but in areas of significant tectonic activity differences can exceed 9m.
