Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Nord Sahara 1959 to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert Nord Sahara 1959 (EPSG:4307) 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 Nord Sahara 1959 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4307 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the Nord Sahara 1959 to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:5660) has an accuracy of 1m using the Position Vector transformation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Algeria.
