Coordinate Reference Systems
Transform Coordinates
Remarks
Transformation is to original definition of WGS 84. It is consistent with later WGS 84 realisations G730, G873 and G1150 to no better than 1m.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert RGPF to WGS 84 coordinates?
Use the coordinate transformation tool above to convert RGPF (EPSG:4999) to WGS 84 (EPSG:4979). Enter your source coordinates and click Transform. This uses the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method with 0.5m accuracy.
How do I transform RGPF to WGS 84 using Proj4js?
Use proj4.defs to define both EPSG:4999 and EPSG:4979, then call proj4(source, target, [x, y]) to convert coordinates programmatically.
What is the accuracy of the RGPF to WGS 84 transformation?
This transformation (EPSG:15766) has an accuracy of 0.5m using the Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain) method. Area of use: French Polynesia.
