Geodetic CRS: American Samoa 1962
Datum: American Samoa 1962
Ellipsoid: Clarke 1866
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Information source: ftp://ftp.ngs.noaa.gov/pub/pcsoft/nadcon/samoa_readme.txt
Revision date: 2004-04-27
Scope: Geodesy.
Remarks: NADCON method which expects longitudes positive west; EPSG GeogCRSs American Samoa 1962 and NAD83(HARN) (codes 4169 and 4152) have longitudes positive east. NADCON expects latitudes in northern hemisphere and values must be made positive prior to input.
Method: NADCON
Area of use: American Samoa - Ofu, Olesega and Ta'u islands.
