Common mistakes with NAD83(CSRS)v6 / UTM zone 22N
- Easting and northing swapped. In NAD83(CSRS)v6 / UTM zone 22N the middle of the grid is near easting 500,368.81 and northing 5,380,212.31. If your easting column holds numbers like 5,380,212.31, the columns are the wrong way round and every point lands far away: swap them before converting.
- Feet entered as metres. NAD83(CSRS)v6 / UTM zone 22N is in metres. Coordinates copied from a drawing in feet must be converted first, or every point moves outwards from the grid's origin.
- Forgetting the datum. NAD83(CSRS)v6 / UTM zone 22N is not on WGS 84: treated as WGS 84, no shift (the datums agree to about a metre or better). Picking a WGS 84 grid with the same projection instead leaves the points off by that amount.
- Points outside the grid's area. NAD83(CSRS)v6 / UTM zone 22N is meant for Canada between 54°W and 48°W onshore and offshore - Newfoundland and Labrador. Points well outside that area convert with growing error; the converter flags them so you can choose the right grid.
- A local site grid. If every point is off by the same distance and direction, the drawing may be on a local site grid. Calibrate on three or more known control points instead.
