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

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.
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. A datum cannot be seen or physically measured because is a calculation of the Geoid/Mean Seal Level (MSL), which is the average global height of the ...
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 in desired reference levels.
Nov 03, 2016 · having trouble with the NGS tool kit to convert a NAVD88 elevation to NGVD29 datum for this point: LAT: 42 14 28.03382 0.006(m) ...
The upgrade to NAVD 88 means that the values we associate with the height of water – what many people think of as mean sea level – will change. Within the SFWMD boundaries, measurements of water levels in NAVD 88 will be approximately -0.6 feet to -1.8 feet lower than they are in NGVD 29, as elevation difference varies by geographic location.
My root issue is that I have elevation values in NGVD 1929 that need to be related to a DEM which has elevation values in NAVD 1988. Is there a way that I can convert elevation from one data to another en masse? I have searched online for a solution but so far have only come up with an app that will give you the difference between the two ...
Within the boundaries of the District, the NAVD 88 elevation number is a shift of approximately 0.7 to 1.1 feet lower that the elevation in the NGVD 29 standard. This variation is due to geographical differences. For example, a water level for Lake Panasoffkee of 39.24 feet in NGVD 29 will be 38.36 in the NAVD 88 standard.
I've been given a straighforward conversion from a hydralic study of NAVD88 = NGVD29 + 2.57. Does this make any sense? Should I really just subtract 2.57 from the z values and the conversion to NGVD29 is done? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Brian
