SOME QUESTIONS ON DATUMS AND DATUM TRANSFORMATIONSIn regard to sunny Yemen, there are a number of datums found there. The Aden Datum of 1925 uses the Aden Lambert Zone (Clarke 1880). The Sanaa Datum uses the Yemen Azimuthal Equidistant Grid System (International), and datums with unknown grids exist as: Kamaran Datum of 1926-27, Ras Karma Datum, Socotra, Socotra Datum of 1957, and Socotra Datum of 1964-65.

SOME QUESTIONS ON DATUMS AND DATUM TRANSFORMATIONSThere is a site in Geneva for the European Petroleum Studies Group (EPSG) that gives free data out on many Grid Systems in Europe. Note that Switzerland does not use a Transverse Mercator; it uses a Rosenmund Oblique Cyllindrical that just by chance is already programmed in PROJ4. European use of the Transverse Mercator has been 100% Gauss-Kruger (u with an umlaut on Kruger) since the Second World War.

(They are now part of the Ordnance Survey of Great Britain.) I do not have the coordinates of the origin or the azimuth of orientation, but the ellipsoid is the "Clarke 1880, (Modified)" where a = 6,378,249.145 meters, 1/f = 293.465.

SOME QUESTIONS ON DATUMS AND DATUM TRANSFORMATIONSThe Puerto Rico Datum of 1901 is based on its origin at Cardona Island Lighthouse with a defining azimuth to Ponce Southwest Base. The Datum is referenced to the same ellipsoid as NAD 1927 which is the Clarke 1866. The island is now on the NAD83, and the Grid parameters have changed slightly.

TEC Imagery Office - FAQsDatum-A set of parameters and control points used to accurately define the three dimensional shape of the earth [eg. as a spheroid]. The datum is the basis of planar co-ordinate system. For eg. the North American Datum for 1983 (NAD83) is the datum for map projections and coordinates within the united states and throughout North America Map Projection-A device for representing all or part of a rounded surface on a flat sheet.
Related QuestionsWhat is the projection, datum, units, cell size?
National Elevation DatasetThere is no projection. The coordinates systems is geographic. To keep the dataset consistent the geographic coordinate system can be used across the dataset. Once the data is received it can be reprojected into UTM zones. This conversion to software dependent. The horizontal datum for all areas, except Alaska, is NAD83. Alaska is NAD27. The vertical datum for all areas, except Alaska, is NAVD88. Alaska is NAVD29.
Related QuestionsCan the data be produced in a different datum or projection?
National Elevation DatasetNo. To maintain consistency the data is only produced in NAD83 and a geographic projection. It would be up to the software being used to reproject into UTM zones or a different datum.

Related QuestionsWhat map projection and datum are C-CAP data distributed in?
Land Cover Analysis - C-CAP Data FAQsC-CAP data, provided on the Web, are distributed in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM), North American Datum 1983 (NAD83), meters. The reason for the use of a Mercator-based projection is that raster data are not well represented in Geographic Latitude/Longitude (GLL) projection. GLL is a non-Cartesian coordinate system, meaning that the pixel size will change over space, becoming more extreme as you approach the poles.

Chart frequently asked questions (FAQs)A datum is a ???base level??? or ???reference value??? from which other values can be calculated. A position on a map or chart is referenced to an imaginary plane surface (the horizontal datum) so that all positions taken from the chart are consistent and accurate. The horizontal datum for all boating safety charts is GDA94 (compatible with WGS84). GDA94 stands for Geocentric Datum (of) Australia as established in 1994 and WGS84 stands for World Geodetic System as established in 1984.

Related QuestionsWhat is a GIS data projection?
Knowledge Base: FAQGIS data projections are the method that cartographers use to represent our 3 dimensional world on a 2 dimensional flat map. There are many different projections to choose from, because each one tends to distort shape, area, direction, or distances in different ways and by different amounts. Which one you use depends on your purpose. For a more detailed discussion of the projections in general, see the Wikipedia article: Map Projections (EXTERNAL LINK).

Related QuestionsWhat is geodetic datum?
Frequently Asked Questions: GPSMapEditDatum is like frame of reference. Each point at earth surface is defined as combination of latitude, longitude and elevation. But all the three values depend on origing of coordinates, direction of axes, and accuracy of measured Earth radius and polar flattening. Different datums are used in different countries. As a result, coordinates of the same point may differ in two datums. For instance, Russian maps are based on "Pulkovo-1942" datum. The one used in GPS is WGS84.
