Official EPSG transformation from WGS 84 to IG05/12 Intermediate CRS

The EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset defines 1 transformation between WGS 84 (EPSG:4326) and IG05/12 Intermediate CRS (EPSG:6990). Its parameters, accuracy and area of use are listed below.

WGS 84 to IG05/12 Intermediate CRS

EPSG:9189±0.1 m
Method:
Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain)
Area of use:
Asia - Middle East - Israel and Palestine onshore
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.
ParameterValueUnit
X-axis translation(tx)-23.772metre
Y-axis translation(ty)-17.49metre
Z-axis translation(tz)-17.859metre
X-axis rotation(rx)-0.3132arc-second
Y-axis rotation(ry)-1.85274arc-second
Z-axis rotation(rz)1.67299arc-second
Scale difference(ds)5.4262parts per million

Parameter values from CT code 9186 assuming that WGS 84 is coincident with ITRF2008. Updates CT 6993 for approx 40cm tectonic plate motion for GIS purposes. CT 6993 remains the legal definition of IG05/12 and must be used for cadastre and engineering.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is converting WGS 84 to IG05/12 Intermediate CRS?
The most accurate official EPSG transformation between these systems is accurate to about ±0.1 m within its stated area of use. Browser-based converters approximate datum shifts with Helmert parameters; for surveying-grade work apply the official transformation 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.
