This projection is a variation of the Transverse Mercator projection used in Denmark. The projection consists of a base UTM (zones 32 & 33) calculation, which is then adjusted by an order 11 polynomial, and then further adjusted by an order 13 polynomial.
Note that a previous version of this projection was used up until 1999, based solely on the order 11 polynomial. This newer version is a further refinement of those results using the additional order 13 polynomial.
The polynomials used in the Danish System 34 projection were developed by K. Poder and K. Engsager of Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen. The polynomial coefficients can be obtained by contacting Kort & Matrikelstyrelsen.
