Remarks

Exact in 1994 but due to significant and variable tectonic activity in PNG, in 2011 PNG94 and WGS 84 differ generally by 2m but in areas of significant tectonic activity differences can exceed 9m.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert PNG94 to WGS 84 coordinates?

Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert PNG94 (EPSG:5546) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method with 2m accuracy.

How do I transform PNG94 to WGS 84 using Proj4js?

Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:5546 and EPSG:4326, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.

What is the accuracy of the PNG94 to WGS 84 transformation?

This transformation (EPSG:5553) has an accuracy of 2m using the Geocentric translations (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: Papua New Guinea.
