Vicmap Position - AGD66 and GDA94 Transformation Sample Point

The test data set can be used to test high accuracy coordinate transformation (for compiled GIS data) and coordinate conversion in and around Victoria in relation to the Geocentric Datum of Australia. The test data can be used to compare outputs from software that: · Claims to use the official Intergovernmental Committee on Survey and Mapping (ICSM) high accuracy combined 7 parameter/distortion model transformation process and incorporating or derived from file data contained in called National 66 (13.09.01).gsb (refer to (http://www.anzlic.org.au/icsm/gdatm/) which is provided in the National Transformation Version 2 (NTv2) grid file format. · Claims to perform conversions between coordinate types relating to the Australian Geodetic Datum and Geocentric Datum of Australia including: - Geographicals: Latitude and Longitude coordinates (ie AGD66 and GDA94), - Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid coordinates (ie Australian Map Grid 1966 (AMG66) and Map Grid of Australia 1994 (MGA94)) and - Custom Lambert conformal conic projection coordinates relating to the Land Victoria Vicgrid66 and Vicgrid94 projection specifications as they apply to Victoria (refer to www.giconnections.vic.gov.au)
