World-wide coordinate systems
468 EPSG coordinate systems that cover large parts of the world, such as UTM zones. Choose a datum to see its systems.
The 468 EPSG coordinate systems for world-wide use are based on WGS 84, WGS 72, WGS 72BE and Plate Carree and other datums. Projections used: UTM (Transverse Mercator) (379), Other projections (31) and Stereographic (22). Coordinates are in metres. UTM zones: 1N, 1S, 2N, 2S, 3N, 3S, 4N, 4S, 5N, 5S, 6N, 6S, 7N, 7S, 8N, 8S, 9N, 9S, 10N, 10S, 11N, 11S, 12N, 12S, 13N, 13S, 14N, 14S, 15N, 15S, 16N, 16S, 17N, 17S, 18N, 18S, 19N, 19S, 20N, 20S, 21N, 21S, 22N, 22S, 23N, 23S, 24N, 24S, 25N, 25S, 26N, 26S, 27N, 27S, 28N, 28S, 29N, 29S, 30N, 30S, 31N, 31S, 32N, 32S, 33N, 33S, 34N, 34S, 35N, 35S, 36N, 36S, 37N, 37S, 38N, 38S, 39N, 39S, 40N, 40S, 41N, 41S, 42N, 42S, 43N, 43S, 44N, 44S, 45N, 45S, 46N, 46S, 47N, 47S, 48N, 48S, 49N, 49S, 50N, 50S, 51N, 51S, 52N, 52S, 53N, 53S, 54N, 54S, 55N, 55S, 56N, 56S, 57N, 57S, 58N, 58S, 59N, 59S, 60N and 60S.

Questions about world-wide coordinates
- Which coordinate system is used in world-wide use?
- 468 EPSG systems are defined for world-wide use, on datums such as WGS 84, WGS 72 and WGS 72BE. Use the one named in your survey report or drawing; the EPSG code is the safest way to identify it.
- Which UTM zone is world-wide use in?
- world-wide use is covered by UTM zones 1N, 1S, 2N, 2S, 3N, 3S, 4N, 4S, 5N, 5S, 6N, 6S, 7N, 7S, 8N, 8S, 9N, 9S, 10N, 10S, 11N, 11S, 12N, 12S, 13N, 13S, 14N, 14S, 15N, 15S, 16N, 16S, 17N, 17S, 18N, 18S, 19N, 19S, 20N, 20S, 21N, 21S, 22N, 22S, 23N, 23S, 24N, 24S, 25N, 25S, 26N, 26S, 27N, 27S, 28N, 28S, 29N, 29S, 30N, 30S, 31N, 31S, 32N, 32S, 33N, 33S, 34N, 34S, 35N, 35S, 36N, 36S, 37N, 37S, 38N, 38S, 39N, 39S, 40N, 40S, 41N, 41S, 42N, 42S, 43N, 43S, 44N, 44S, 45N, 45S, 46N, 46S, 47N, 47S, 48N, 48S, 49N, 49S, 50N, 50S, 51N, 51S, 52N, 52S, 53N, 53S, 54N, 54S, 55N, 55S, 56N, 56S, 57N, 57S, 58N, 58S, 59N, 59S, 60N and 60S. Pick the zone by the longitude of your site: each zone is 6° wide.
- How do I convert world-wide use 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 world-wide use coordinates in metres or feet?
- All 468 are in metres. Enter the numbers in the unit of the system you choose; each system's page shows its unit.
