Coordinate Reference Systems
Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Derived at 7 stations. Accuracy 13m, 25m and 7m in X, Y and Z axes. Info source gives source CRS as Arc 1960. From inspection of parameter values, comparison with other CTs and geographic applicability of CRS, OGP believes that this should be Arc 1950.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Arc 1950 to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert Arc 1950 (EPSG:4209) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method with 29m accuracy.
How do I transform Arc 1950 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4209 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the Arc 1950 to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:6904) has an accuracy of 29m using the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Malawi.
