Conversion Coordinates, Method of coordinate operation
graphic21.03.2012
Conversions describe a mapping between two coordinate systems of different type. All conversion parameters are known a priori and are used as constants.
When applying conversions to Coordinate Reference Systems, the datum doesn't change.
