In 1911, these different networks on different datums and with different origins were consolidated into one nationwide network and the Luzon Datum was established with triangulation station Balanacan as its datum origin. The Luzon Datum became the primary geodetic reference of all surveys in the Philippines. [1] [2] [3]

This template is designed to convert a set of Swiss coordinates into either the corresponding WGS84 decimal latitude or longitude. It is intended to facilitate the usage of geodata (see {{ coord }} ) in articles about subjects for which only Swiss coordinates are readily available.
A geographic coordinate system (GCS) is a spherical or geodetic coordinate system for measuring and communicating positions directly on Earth as latitude and longitude. [1] It is the simplest, oldest and most widely used type of the various spatial reference systems that are in use, and forms the basis for most others.
On the reference ellipsoid for WGS84, the centre of the Eiffel Tower has a geodetic latitude of 48° 51′ 29″ N, or 48.8583° N and longitude of 2° 17′ 40″ E or 2.2944°E. The same coordinates on the datum ED50 define a point on the ground which is 140 metres (460 feet) distant from the tower.
Module:Location map/data/Luzon is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Luzon. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
Pine forest in Zambales. Luzon is the largest island in the Philippines and lies at the north of the group of islands. These pine forests are found at elevations over 1000m in the Cordillera Central mountains in the north of the island, where they are mixed in with areas of Luzon montane rain forests especially at the northern end of the range.
The Luzon rain forests encompass about 95,571 square kilometers (36,900 sq mi) out of the 109,965 sq kilometers (42,458 sq mi) of the total area of the island of Luzon. [2] Luzon is the largest and northernmost major island of the Philippines , located in the western Pacific Ocean .
