Geodetic CRS: NGVD29 height (ftUS)
Datum: National Geodetic Vertical Datum 1929
Data source: EPSG
Information source: National Geodetic Survey, www.ngs.noaa.gov
Revision date: 2019-09-17
Scope: Change of height to a different vertical reference surface.
Remarks: In this area the NGVD29 vertical reference surface is approximately 0 to 0.5m above the NAVD88 surface. Interpolation within the gridded data file may be made using either NAD27 or any of the realisations of NAD83 applicable to US conus.
Method: Vertical Offset by Grid Interpolation (VERTCON)
Description: (0,)
