Transform Coordinates
Remarks
May be taken as transformation to WGS 84 - see tfm code 15717. See Bogota 1975 to MAGNA-SIRGAS (10), tfm code 15731, for an equivalent transformation using the Molodenski-Badekas 10-parameter method. OGP recommends this alternative.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Bogota 1975 to MAGNA-SIRGAS coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert Bogota 1975 (EPSG:4218) to MAGNA-SIRGAS (EPSG:4686). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method with 1m accuracy.
How do I transform Bogota 1975 to MAGNA-SIRGAS using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4218 and EPSG:4686, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the Bogota 1975 to MAGNA-SIRGAS transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:15716) has an accuracy of 1m using the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Colombia region 2.
