Frequently asked question

What National Transformation Version 2 (NTv2) geographic transformation grids are supported in ArcGIS Desktop?

Last Published: October 7, 2023

Answer

The National Transformation Version 2 (NTv2) geographic transformation grid files listed in the table below are supported in Esri software including ArcGIS Pro and ArcMap at various versions.

Note:
Transformation grid files (.GSB) for some of these transformations are not installed with ArcGIS Desktop. If the grid is not installed, the geographic transformation will not execute, and the data will not be transformed to the new datum. If not installed, the transformation grid file (*.gsb) must be obtained from the national government agency for the country the grid is applied to.
The transformation grids must be installed in the following path in the Country folder for which the grid is used:
C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\pedata\ntv2

1. Create a new folder with the country name in LOWER CASE LETTERS, with no spaces in the name.
2. Save the GSB file in the folder for that country. For example, for New Zealand, the GSB file should be placed in:
C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\Resources\pedata\ntv2\newzealand
Table Key:
USABLE:
yes - The file is present in either the core installation or in the Coordinate System Data appliance. It is recommended to install that appliance, which can be downloaded from My Esri.
no- Esri does not install this file. The file must be obtained by the customer from the relevant government agency for that country.

DEPRECATED:
no - This transformation is considered to have an acceptable degree of accuracy. There may be newer transformations that are better.
yes - This transformation has been superseded by a newer, more accurate, transformation.
Note that in either case the required grid file may or may not be present (check the USABLE field for that).
