UCS-2000 to ETRS89 (1)

EPSG:9901±1 m
Method:
Geocentric translations (geog2D domain)
Area of use:
Ukraine
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)24metre
Y-axis translation(ty)-121metre
Z-axis translation(tz)-76metre

Rounded parameter values taken from UCS-2000 to ITRF2000 (1) (code 7817) assuming that ETRS89 is equivalent to ITRF2000 within the accuracy of the transformation.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is converting UCS-2000 to ETRS89?
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 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.
