EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

Selected transformation

Name: Aratu to WGS 84 (21)

Method: Geocentric translations (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Parameters from Aratu to SIRGAS 2000 (9) (tfm code 5066) assuming that SIRGAS 2000 and WGS 84 are equal within the accuracy of the transformation. Petrobras preferred parameters for all purposes in the area.
