EPSG:4230 EPSG:4326

Coordinate Reference Systems

Transform Coordinates

Remarks

Approximation to 1 metre of concatenated transformation ED50 to WGS 84 (14), code 8653. 8653 remains the transformation promulgated by Statens Kartverk but 1613 recommended by EPSG for practical oil industry usage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert ED50 to WGS 84 coordinates?

Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert ED50 (EPSG:4230) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain) method with 1m accuracy.

How do I transform ED50 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?

Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4230 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.

What is the accuracy of the ED50 to WGS 84 transformation?

This transformation (EPSG:1613) has an accuracy of 1m using the Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Norway - North Sea - offshore south of 62°N.
