Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert JAD69 to WGS 72 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert JAD69 (EPSG:4242) to WGS 72 (EPSG:4322). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method with 10m accuracy.
How do I transform JAD69 to WGS 72 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4242 and EPSG:4322, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the JAD69 to WGS 72 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:1083) has an accuracy of 10m using the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Jamaica - onshore.
