EPSG:8266

GVR2000 height

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: GVR2000 height

Datum: Greenland Vertical Reference 2000

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Agency for Data Supply and Efficiency (SDFE), Denmark.

Revision date: 2017-09-05

Scope: Topographic mapping.

Remarks: Replaced by GVR2016 height (CRS code 8267). GVR2000 is realized by gravimetric geoid model 2000 (transformation code 8268) applied to GR96 (CRS code 4909).

Area of use: Greenland - onshore and offshore between 59°N and 84°N and west of 10°W.

Coordinate system: Vertical CS. Axis: height (H). Orientation: up. UoM: m.
