◦ , Gauss–Krueger coordinates, point 1 is indicated by the dot–circle.
Example 15.5 (Gauss–Krueger coordinates. Easting versus Northing coordinates).
The point 1, which is located on the Bessel ellipsoid, is described by ellipsoidal normal coordinates
L = 6.8
◦ and B = 51.2
◦ . Compare with Fig. 15.11.
Important!
x 1 (Gauss–Krueger) = 55 909.151 m, y 1 (Gauss–Krueger) = 5 674 057.263 m.
Easting: 2 555 909.151 m, Northing: 5 674 057.263 m.
Important!
The point 1 is located 55 909.151 m East of the reference meridian with the meridian number
2, that is L 0 = 6
◦ and 5 674 057.263 m North of the equator.
