Coordinate Reference Systems
Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Derived at 4 stations, tested at a further 9. Also used as tfm to JAD69 to JAD2001 (see code 15926). Note: Info source paper contains an error in sign of dS, subsequently confirmed by primary author and NLA of Jamaica, and corrected in this record.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert JAD69 to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert JAD69 (EPSG:4242) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method with 1m accuracy.
How do I transform JAD69 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4242 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the JAD69 to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:15927) has an accuracy of 1m using the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Jamaica - onshore.
