Name: NAD83 to NAVD88 height (8)
Method: Geographic3D to GravityRelatedHeight (gtx)
Grid Files: g2003u08.bin
Remarks: Uses Geoid03 hybrid model. See information source for further information. Note: Source CRS is 2D, used in this application of the method as a pseudo-3D CRS.
Information source: National Geodetic Survey, http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/GEOID/
Revision date: 2015-11-25
Unit: degree (supplier to define representation)
Geodetic CRS: NAD83
Datum: North American Datum 1983
Ellipsoid: GRS 1980
Prime meridian: Greenwich
Data source: EPSG
Revision date: 2019-09-17
Scope: Geodesy.
Remarks: Longitude is POSITIVE EAST. The adjustment included connections to Greenland and Mexico but the system was not adopted there. For applications with an accuracy of better than 1m replaced by NAD83(HARN) in the US and PRVI and by NAD83(CSRS) in Canada.
Coordinate system: Ellipsoidal 2D CS. Axes: latitude, longitude. Orientations: north, east. UoM: degree
Center coordinates
