NAD83-98.gsb
Uses NT method which expects longitudes positive west; EPSG GeogCRSs NAD83 (code 4269) and NAD83(CSRS98) (code 4140) have longitudes positive east. Can be taken as an approximate transformation NAD83 to WGS 84 - see code 1696. Geodetic Service of Quebec. Contact

Geodesy.
Longitude is POSITIVE EAST. The adjustment included connections to Greenland and Mexico but the system was not adopted there. For applications with an accuracy of better than 1m replaced by NAD83(HARN) in the US and PRVI and by NAD83(CSRS) in Canada.
Ellipsoidal 2D CS. Axes: latitude, longitude. Orientations: north, east. UoM: degree
