Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between WGS84 and RD / Amersfoort?
WGS84 (EPSG:4326) is geographic and based in Global, while RD / Amersfoort (EPSG:28992) is national grid based in Netherlands. The global reference system used by GPS, Google Maps and virtually all modern navigation. Defined by satellite geodesy and continuously refined. In contrast, dutch national grid centered on amersfoort. used for all surveying, cadastre and engineering in the netherlands since 1885 (modernized 1918).
Is this conversion accurate for surveying?
Yes. The conversion uses the industry-standard proj4 library with full datum shift parameters (). Typical accuracy is sub-meter for civilian applications. For cadastral precision, always verify against the official agency datum.
What coordinate format should I use?
For WGS84, enter coordinates as decimal degrees in the format "lat, lng" (e.g. 45.4642, 9.1900). The tool auto-detects the format.
Can I convert many points at once?
Yes, use our batch CSV converter. Upload a CSV with your points, select the transformation, download the converted file. Free with a SurveyingPedia account.
Is there an API?
Yes — call /api/v1/transform?from=EPSG:4326&to=EPSG:28992&coords=lat,lng for programmatic access. It returns the transformed coordinates as JSON.
