A Proposal for geodetic datum development 1.0 Introduction A national geodetic datum provides a country with a local implementation of global coordinate systems. It minimizes the risk of having different and inconsistent coordinate reference systems. It enables a wide range of spatial applications to be supported in a manner that is consistent with international standards and best practice. When Borneo Triangulation 1968 (BT68) was established‚ it complied with the then current recommendations
