Official EPSG transformations from JGD2000 to JGD2011

The EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset defines 2 transformations between JGD2000 (EPSG:4612) and JGD2011 (EPSG:6668). Each applies to a specific area — pick the one whose area of use covers your data.

JGD2000 to JGD2011 (1)

EPSG:6713±0.2 mBest accuracy
Method:
NTv2
Area of use:
Japan - northern Honshu
Scope:
Readjustment of coordinates to account for ground deformation caused by 2011 Tohoku earthquake.

Grid file: touhokutaiheiyouoki2011.gsb

NTv2 grid derived by ESRI from that supplied by GSI in application patchjgd.

JGD2000 to JGD2011 (2)

EPSG:6698±1 m
Method:
Geocentric translations (geog2D domain)
Area of use:
Japan excluding northern main province
Scope:
Approximation at the 1m level.
ParameterValueUnit
X-axis translation(tx)0metre
Y-axis translation(ty)0metre
Z-axis translation(tz)0metre

Excludes areas of northern Honshu affected by 2008 Iwate-Miyagi and 2011 Tohoku earthquakes. For these areas use GSI PatchJGD application or JGD2000 to JGD2011 (1) (tfm code 6713).

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is converting JGD2000 to JGD2011?
The most accurate official EPSG transformation between these systems is accurate to about ±0.2 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.
