The projection is named after Carl Friedrich Gauss and Giovanni Boaga. It was created by Giovanni Boaga in the 1940s who was at that time the head of the Istituto Geografico Militare. The projection method is a slight variant of the Gauss–Krüger series development for the ellipsoidal transverse Mercator projection. Like the closely related UTM, the Gauss–Boaga scales the projection down so that the central meridian has a scale factor of 0.9996 rather than 1.0.
