Unit: metre
Geodetic CRS: AHD height
Datum: Australian Height Datum
Data source: EPSG
Information source: GDA2020 Technical Manual v1.4 and Australian Vertical Working Surface (AVWS) Technical Implementation Plan v1.2 (http://www.icsm.gov.au).
Revision date: 2020-10-21
Scope: Cadastre, engineering surveying applications over distances up to 10km.
Remarks: Appropriate for cadastral and local engineering survey including construction or mining. Only suitable onshore. AVWS height (CRS code 9458) is more accurate than AHD height for applications over distances greater than 10 km and also extends offshore.
Coordinate system: Vertical CS. Axis: height (H). Orientation: up. UoM: m.
