Selected transformation

Name: RGPF to WGS 84 (1)

Method: Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain)

Remarks: SHOM report gives scale difference as 0.999 999 9907 (wrt unity). Transformation is to original Transit definition of WGS 84. It is consistent with later WGS 84 realisations G730, G873 and G1150 to no better than 1m.
