EPSG:3973 WGS 84 / NSIDC EASE-Grid North
Projection: Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area Latitude of the origin: 90° Longitude of the origin
(central meridian):0° Scaling factor: 1 False eastings: 0 False northings: 0 Ellipsoid: WGS84 Datum: WGS84 Units: meters Northern Hemisphere extent
(minx, miny, maxy, maxy):-9036842.762, -9036842.762,
9036842.762, 9036842.762NOTE: This map projection is similar to the one used in NSIDC's EASE-Grid data products. Rather than using a custom sphere for its datum, however, it uses WGS84.
