EEA geospatial data catalogue
EEA reference grid for Europe (50km), Jun. 2024
This dataset is an INSPIRE compatible vector grid of 50 km covering the whole of Europe. The coordinate reference system (CRS) is ETRS89-LAEA Europe, also known in the EPSG Geodetic Parameter Dataset under the identifier: EPSG:3035.
Note: This version holds correction for errors in the grid cell codes detected in the 2018 version.

- Statement
-
The reference grids are based on ETRS89 Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area projection with parameters: latitude of origin 52°N, longitude of origin 10°E, false northing 3210000.0m, false easting 4321000.0m. Origin of the grid is calculated from 0mN 0mE of projection. The method followed the instructions for the EEA fishnet tool described in the EEA Reference grid definition available in the link section.
