The NAVD 88/IGLD 85 datum transformation is a tool to convert coordinates between these two datums. This computation can be done interactively, or in batch mode by submitting a file of data points. The Great Lakes are referenced to the International Great Lakes Datum of 1985 (IGLD 85) dynamic heights.

Datum Ellipsoidal Datum Orthometric Datum Tidal Datum. Web VDatum is designed to vertically transform geospatial data among a variety of tidal, orthometric and ellipsoidal vertical datums - allowing users to convert their data from different horizontal/vertical references into a common system and enabling the fusion of diverse geospatial data ...
Nov 4, 2020 · Speaking of the future, the NGS is developing transformation routines that will be used to transform NAVD 88 heights to the next vertical reference system. This will limit the need to visit all the benchmark sites in future datum adjustments.
NAVD 88 was established in 1991 by the minimum-constraint adjustment of geodetic leveling observations in Canada, the United States, and Mexico. It held fixed the height of the primary tide gauge benchmark, referenced to the International Great Lakes Datum of 1985 local mean sea level (MSL) height value, at Rimouski, Quebec, Canada.
Due to various observational, dynamical, and steric effects, there will be slight departures between a dynamic height and an IGLD 85 height. These departures are known as hydraulic correctors, and are part of the NAVD 88/IGLD 85 datum transformation.
NAD 83 and NAVD 88, although still the official horizontal and vertical datums of the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), have been identified as having shortcomings that are best addressed through defining new horizontal and vertical datums. Specifically: NAD 83 is non-geocentric by about 2.2 meters.
