EPSG:8692 NAD83(MA11) / UTM zone 54N
Projected system (Transverse Mercator) in use: Pacific - Guam and NMI west of 144°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.
