http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-36912700 The Geocentric Datum of Australia, the country's local co-ordinate system, was last updated in 1994. Since then, Australia has moved about 1.5 metres north. So on 1 January 2017, the country's local co-ordinates will also be shifted further north - by 1.8m. The over-correction means Australia's local co-ordinates and the Earth's global co-ordinates will align in 2020.
