Change of height to a different vertical reference surface.
In the SE of this area the NGVD29 surface is 0 to 0.1m above the NAVD88 surface; in the W it is 0.6 to 0.9m below the NAVD88 surface. Interpolation in the data file may be made using either NAD27 or any of the NAD83 realizations applicable to US conus.
