Coordinates of the Digital Maps are in Hong Kong 1980 Grid (HK 1980 Grid) and which
is a local rectangular grid system based on the HK80 Datum and Transverse Mercator
projection. Heights are shown in metres above the Hong Kong Principal Datum (HKPD).
For general reference, the Mean Sea Level is about 1.3 metres above the HKPD.
Data Source
Data, with associated geometries, have codes to denote the data capturing method of
horizontal data. The code ranges from 1 to 13 in general for classification of data sources.
The codes currently used are given below:
Data, with associated level information, have codes to denote the data capturing method
of leveling data. The code ranges from 1 to 12 in general for classification of data sources.
The codes currently used are given below:
This is the code of the street / village / estate where the address locates in. The code is pre-
assigned by LIC in the STREET_CODE feature class. It should be any one within the
following ranges:
