EPSG:22815 NAD83(CSRS)v8 / UTM zone 15N
Projected system (Transverse Mercator) in use: Canada - 96°W to 90°W. The full definition below, and conversion in one click.
EPSG publishes no simple transformation to WGS 84 for this datum: conversion works on the ellipsoid alone and can be off by tens of metres.
