Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Scale difference is given by information source as 0.999999. Given in this record in ppm to assist application usage. Very similar parameter values (to slightly less precision) used for BD72 to ETRS89: see code 1652.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert BD72 to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert BD72 (EPSG:4313) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method with 1m accuracy.
How do I transform BD72 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4313 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the BD72 to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:1609) has an accuracy of 1m using the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Belgium - onshore.
