Official EPSG transformation from St. Lawrence Island to WGS 84

The EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset defines 1 transformation between St. Lawrence Island (EPSG:4136) and WGS 84 (EPSG:4326). Its parameters, accuracy and area of use are listed below.

St. Lawrence Island to WGS 84 (1)

EPSG:1699±1.5 m
Method:
NADCON
Area of use:
USA - Alaska - St. Lawrence Island
Scope:
(null/copy) Approximation for medium and low accuracy applications assuming equality between plate-fixed static and earth-fixed dynamic CRSs, ignoring static/dynamic CRS differences.

Grid files: stlrnc.lasstlrnc.los

Parameter files are from St. Lawrence Island to NAD83 (1) (code 1455) assuming that NAD83 is equivalent to WGS 84 within the accuracy of the transformation.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is converting St. Lawrence Island to WGS 84?
The most accurate official EPSG transformation between these systems is accurate to about ±1.5 m within its stated area of use. Browser-based converters approximate datum shifts with Helmert parameters; for surveying-grade work apply the official transformation (including the grid-shift files listed below) in a desktop GIS.
Does my data leave the browser when I use this converter?
No. All coordinate transformations are computed locally in your browser using proj4js. The coordinates you enter are never transmitted to any server.
