   To calculate the elevation in NAVD 88, add the conversion factor to the existing elevation. For example, assume the existing elevation in NGVD 29 is 54.25 ft. for the top of bottom floor. You might also want to convert other elevations such as top of next higher floor, bottom of lowest horizontal structural member, lowest adjacent grade next

   What does NAVD 88 mean?

   • NAVD 88 is the abbreviation for the North American Vertical Datum of 1988. NAVD 88 is one of five current National Geodetic Datums, which are coordinate systems that act as standard reference lines to measure points on the earth’s surface in the region that they apply.

   How do I convert NGVD 29 elevation to NAVD 88?

   • Elevations referenced to NGVD 29 can be converted to NAVD 88 by using a conversion factor. This conversion factor is just added to the NGVD 29 elevation to compute the equivalent NAVD 88 elevation. The simplest method is to use the offset used by FEMA.

   Is NAVD 88 lower than NGVD 29?

   • NAVD 88 is lower than NGVD 29 in the east, so the conversion factor will be a negative number. The elevation converted to NAVD 88 will be a lower number than the elevation in NGVD 29. In the western United States, individual streams or watersheds have their own conversion factors.

   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.

   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...

   NGVD 29 is the abbreviation for the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929, the predecessor to NAVD 88. Due to the advancement of technology and surveying methods, the increased amount of available data and the level of accuracy of that data led to the new datum. The original datum used 26 tide stations throughout the United States and Canada ...
