Name: Schwarzeck to WGS 84 (2)
Method: Geocentric translations (geog2D domain)
Remarks: Beware! Source CRS uses GLM, tfm param in m. Example: Schwarzeck φ=19°35'46.952"S λ=20°41'50.649"E h=1185.99m; X=5623409.386 Y=2124618.003 Z=-2125847.632 GLM; X=5623485.84m Y=2124646.89m Z=-2125876.54m; WGS 84 X=5624101.48m Y=2124748.97m Z=-2126132.35m.

Revision date: 2023-01-17
Unit: metre
Geodetic CRS: Schwarzeck
Datum: Schwarzeck
Ellipsoid: Bessel Namibia (GLM)
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Revision date: 2025-02-19
Scope: Engineering survey, topographic mapping.
Remarks: CARE! The ellipsoid semi-major axis dimension is defined in German Legal Metres as 6377397.155 GLM but the coordinate system axes are in International metres. For use in this projected CRS, the ellipsoid semi-major axis needs to be converted to International metres as 6377483.865 m.
Area of use: Namibia - offshore.
Coordinate system: Cartesian 2D CS. Axes: easting, northing (E,N). Orientations: east, north. UoM: m.
