Quality The survey at Davis used the ITRF2000 at 2000 horizontal datum. Henk Brolsma (AAD Mapping Officer advised that an adjustment of 1.175 metres in a direction of 354 degrees 03' True was needed to bring the data onto the Davis WGS84 datum (as it was in 1996) - the datum on which the Australian Antarctic Data Centre's GIS data for Davis is stored.
Given that Grid North for the UTM zone 43 ... View entire text
