Africa coordinate systems
22 EPSG coordinate systems used in Africa. Pick one to open a converter already set to it, with its parameters and area of use.
The 22 EPSG coordinate systems for Africa are based on WGS 1984 Sinusoidal Africa, WGS 1984 Albers for Africa, WGS 1984 Equidistant Conic for Africa and WGS 1984 Lambert for Africa and other datums. Projections used: Equidistant Cylindrical (16), Azimuthal Equidistant (2) and Other projections (1). Coordinates are in metres.

Questions about Africa coordinates
- Which coordinate system is used in Africa?
- 22 EPSG systems are defined for Africa, on datums such as WGS 1984 Sinusoidal Africa, WGS 1984 Albers for Africa and WGS 1984 Equidistant Conic for Africa. Use the one named in your survey report or drawing; the EPSG code is the safest way to identify it.
- How do I convert Africa coordinates to latitude and longitude or Google Earth?
- Open the system's page below and type an easting and northing into the converter, or paste a whole spreadsheet into the free web app and choose the system by name or EPSG code. Save the result as KML or KMZ and open it in Google Earth.
- Are Africa coordinates in metres or feet?
- All 22 are in metres. Enter the numbers in the unit of the system you choose; each system's page shows its unit.
