   What is a vertical datum?

   • Traditionally, vertical datums have used classical survey methods to measure height differences (i.e. geodetic leveling) to best fit the surface of the earth. The current vertical datum for the contiguous United States and Alaska is the North American Vertical Datum of 1988.

   What is an example of a horizontal geodetic datum?

   • The NAD 27 is an example of horizontal geodetic datums; the NGVD 29 and NAVD 88 are the most two common nationwide vertical datum systems. The earth's surface is approximated in size and shape by the geometric surface that is termed an ellipsoid.

   Does a chart have a horizontal datum?

   • Also note that charts (like maps) have a horizontal datum. On a global basis, the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) designated the use of the World Geodetic System as the universal datum.

   VERTCON 3.0 was a project whose intent was to create new “build software”, and use that software to build and release transformation grids capable of performing orthometric height transformations for a range of datums and regions in the National Spatial Reference System. Those new grids (and supporting information) are called VERTCON 3.0 release 20...

   VERTCON 3.0 release 20190601 is functionally implemented in NGS’s Coordinate Conversion and Transformation Tool (NCAT). Unlike earlier versions of VERTCON, VERTCON 3.0 release 20190601is not a stand-alone tool. Visit the VERTCON 3.0 Digital Archive to access raw transformation data that make up VERTCON 3.0 release 20190601(e.g., grids, images, soft...

   Vertical Datum. A vertical datum is a reference system used for specifying elevation of specific points on the Earth's surface. Vertical datums broadly come in two categories: Three-dimensional datums: those are defined by using a reference ellipsoid and six geocentric parameters expressing origin, and orientation. Unlike a horizontal datum, a ...
