   Conversion between NAVD 88 and the commonly used NGVD 29 varies spatially; however, over most of the study area the following conversion can be used: NGVD 29 = NAVD 88 –3.6 feet. This conversion generally is accurate within about ± 0.5 feet for 95 percent of the study area.

   Quebec, Canada, was held fixed as the constraint, enabling NAVD 88 and the International Great Lakes Datum of 1985 to be one and the same. Now, other tide stations may have elevations other than zero. Since the establishment of NAVD 88, the preference has been for new flood hazard studies to be referenced to NAVD 88. 1.3.

   Nov 4, 2020 · The NAVD 88 used some of the original data from 1929 but also re-leveled about 100,000 km. Originally scheduled to be completed in 1988, it was finished on June 15, 1991. The new datum produced fewer distortions than earlier vertical datums and more accurate elevations, according to Remondi.

   NGVD 1929 Conversion to NAVD 1988. Community officials and the NFIP use the newer, more accurate elevation datum to consistently assess risk for buildings and to complete flood insurance ratings. NAVD 1988 is the newer elevation datum. An easy way to convert BFE data is through the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) online tool known as VERTCON.

   The adjustment project, called the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88), formally began in October 1977. The NAVD 88 project has dominated VNB activities since approval and funding in 1977. Major NAVD 88 tasks are described in detail in previous reports (Zilkoski 1986; Zilkoski and Young 1985). An important feature of the NAVD 88 ...

   What is the average conversion to NAVD 88?

   • An average conversion of 0.1 foot or less could be deceiving in areas that contain conversions to NAVD 88 that show large plus and minus variances. To illustrate this point, Table 2 shows a hypothetical datum conversion analysis where the average conversion to NAVD 88 was calculated as -0.09 foot.

   How do you calculate NVD 88 height?

   • If a NAVD 88 height is desired when a NGVD 29 height is given, ADD the model value ALGEBRAICALLY to the NGVD 29 height. FORMULA: height (NAVD 88) = height (NGVD 29) + datum shift (correction) value 1. the NGVD 29 height is 500 meters (1640.420 feet) at 36 10 35.0 latitude 098 40 10.0 longitude

   This process is designed to provide the datum shift between the NAVD 88 and NGVD 29 vertical datums at a specified geographic position. The correct use of algebraic signs to convert NGVD 29 heights to NAVD 88 heights, or NAVD 88 heights to NGVD 29 heights, is illustrated with examples. Rudolf J. Fury M.S.,M.Eng. 05/12/1999
