Selected transformation

Name: NAD27 to WGS 84 (79)

Method: NADCON

Grid Files: conus.las conus.los

Remarks: Parameter files are from NAD27 to NAD83 (1) (code 1241) assuming that NAD83 is equivalent to WGS 84 within the accuracy of this tfm. Uses NADCON method which expects longitudes positive west; EPSG CRS codes 4267 and 4326 have longitudes positive east.

Data source: EPSG

Revision date: 2009-11-24

Scope: Engineering survey, topographic mapping.

Remarks: Replaced by NAD27(76) / UTM 16N (code 2028) in Ontario, by NAD83 / UTM 16N (code 26916) elsewhere in Canada and USA, and by Mexican Datum of 1993 / UTM 16N (code 4489) in Mexico. See NAD27 / BLM 16N (ftUS) (code 32066) for ftUS equivalent used in US GoM.
