EPSG:4326 - WGS 84

Selected transformation

Name: Amersfoort to WGS 84 (4)

Method: Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain)

Remarks: Parameter values from Amersfoort to ETRS89 (5) (tfm code 4830) assuming that ETRS89 is equivalent to WGS 84 within the accuracy of the transformation. Replaces Amersfoort to WGS 84 (3) (code 15934).

Scope: Intermediate CRS in transformation to and from projected CRS.

Remarks: Use of geographic2D CRS Amersfoort (code 4289) for spatial referencing is discouraged. Use projected CRS Amersfoort / RD New (code 28992).

Area of use: Netherlands - onshore, including Waddenzee, Dutch Wadden Islands and 12-mile offshore coastal zone.

Coordinate system: Ellipsoidal 2D CS. Axes: latitude, longitude. Orientations: north, east. UoM: degree
