EPSG:4779 New Beijing / 3-degree Gauss-Kruger zone 43
Projected system (Transverse Mercator) in use: China - 127.5°E to 130.5°E. 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.
