Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Parameters values from CH1903 to ETRS89-CHE [CHTRF95] (1) (CT code 1646) assuming ETRS89 and WGS 84 can be considered the same to within the accuracy of the transformation. Replaces CH1903 to WGS 84 (1) (code 1753). Replaced by CH1903 to WGS 84 (3) (code 7788).
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert CH1903 to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert CH1903 (EPSG:4149) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method with 1.5m accuracy.
How do I transform CH1903 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4149 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the CH1903 to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:1766) has an accuracy of 1.5m using the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Europe - Liechtenstein and Switzerland.
