Coordinate Reference Systems
Remarks
Scale difference in ppb and scale difference rate in ppb/yr where 1/billion = 1E-9 or nm/m. Joint derivation by Canada and US (tfm 6864) concatenated with IGS value for ITRF96>97 and IERS ITRF97>2000 transformations. See tfm 8261 for Canadian equivalent.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the accuracy of the ITRF2000 to NAD83(CORS96) transformation?
This is an exact transformation (EPSG:6866) with no loss of precision (0m accuracy) using the Time-dependent Coordinate Frame rotation (geocen) method. Area of use: USA - CONUS and Alaska; PRVI.
