Official EPSG transformation from RGF93 v1 to NTF

The EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset defines 1 transformation between RGF93 v1 (EPSG:4171) and NTF (EPSG:4275). Its parameters, accuracy and area of use are listed below.

RGF93 v1 to NTF (2)

EPSG:15958±1 m
Method:
NTv2
Area of use:
France - onshore - mainland and Corsica
Scope:
Transformation of coordinates at 1m level of accuracy.

Grid file: rgf93_ntf.gsb

Emulation using NTv2 method of NTF to RGF93 v1 (1), code 9327. Note that grid file parameters are of opposite sign. May be taken as approximate CT to ETRS89 or WGS 84 (see codes 15959 and 15960). Also used to transform later realizations of RGF93 to NTF.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is converting RGF93 v1 to NTF?
The most accurate official EPSG transformation between these systems is accurate to about ±1 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.
