Station Report

Geoid velocity added

To correct for the vertical drift between reference frames, the velocity of the geoid height (VN) is now calculated and incorporated into the calculation of the orthometric height. View documentation to learn more.

Station Coordinates

Unless otherwise noted, all displayed uncertainties are computed at the 68% (1-sigma) confidence level.

Changing these fields will auto-update the station coordinate information below.

The velocities are interpolated from the national Velocity Grid version 8.0.

Vertical Data (levelling)

Vertical Datum Elevation (m) Order Gravity (mGal) Published Project ID
CGVD2013 (2010.0) 153.689 1st 980797.11 2013 H13NF1311
CGVD28 154.080 1st 980847.41 1977 VA

The CGVD2013 height reported in the Vertical Data table is approximate because it is calculated from historical levelling data and not from the combination of GNSS and a geoid model.
