WGS84 - NAD83(CSRS) shift in 1997 Datum Transformation Parameters
Datum Shift in GPS receivers/software • Usually 3-parameter datum shift • Datum Shift Table published by NGA (National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency)formerly NIMA http://earth-info.nga.mil/GandG/publications/tr8350.2/tr8350_2.html From June 23, 2004 update • The WGS84-NAD83 datum shift values date back to 1987 when WGS84 and NAD83 were the same • If you set your receiver to • WGS84 no datum shift is applied (GPS native datum) • NAD83 a zero datum shift is applied (which is incorrect) • Either way you’re in WGS84
Datum shift in GIS software • 7-parameter datum shift values are often used (e.g. ArcPad) • Datum Shift Table published by NATO • Most GIS software • expect realtime position data (NMEA stream) to be in WGS84 • can apply a WGS4-to-Local datum shift http://earth-info.nga.mil/GandG/coordsys/datums/helmert.html • WGS84-to-NAD83 is a Zero-shift here as well
