Geodetic context in Germany

The national geodetic reference in Germany is maintained by Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie (BKG). The active datum is ETRS89 / UTM. Coordinates shown on this page are expressed in WGS84 (ETRF/ITRF-compatible) which is directly usable in most modern GNSS receivers. For cadastral work in Germany you may need to convert to the local datum using the Coordinate Hub.
