About converting WGS 84 to RGF93 v1 / Lambert-93

Converting from WGS 84 (EPSG:4326) to RGF93 / Lambert-93 (EPSG:2154) is the standard projection for any spatial work in metropolitan France. Lambert-93 is a Lambert Conformal Conic projection with two standard parallels (44°N and 49°N), false easting 700,000 m and false northing 6,600,000 m on the GRS 80 ellipsoid.

Because RGF93 is aligned with ETRS89 (and therefore close to ITRF at epoch 1993), the WGS 84 ↔ RGF93 datum shift is essentially negligible at present-day epochs — the residual is well under a metre and the transformation can be treated as a pure projection change for most purposes.

Lambert-93 has been the legal CRS of France since 2000 and replaces the four-zone Lambert Carto system (codes 27561-27564) for all new mapping.

Frequently asked questions

Is the WGS 84 to Lambert-93 transformation accurate enough for surveying?
RGF93 is aligned with ETRS89 to within a few centimetres, and at modern epochs the WGS 84 ↔ ETRS89 difference across France is roughly 60 cm. For surveying use a time-stamped ETRS89 realisation rather than the generic WGS 84 code.
How accurate is converting WGS 84 to RGF93 v1 / Lambert-93?
Projection-only conversions are accurate to floating-point precision. If a datum shift is involved, browser-based tools use Helmert parameters which are accurate to roughly 1-5 m; for surveying-grade work apply the official grid-shift transformation 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.
