EPSG:5773

EGM96 height

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: EGM96 height

Datum: EGM96 geoid

Data source: EPSG

Information source: NASA http://cddis.gsfc.nasa.gov/926/egm96/egm96.html

Revision date: 2019-07-17

Scope: Geodesy.

Remarks: Zero-height surface resulting from the application of the EGM96 geoid model to the WGS 84 ellipsoid. Replaces EGM84 height (CRS code 5798). Replaced by EGM2008 height (CRS code 3855).

Area of use: World.

Coordinate system: Vertical CS. Axis: height (H). Orientation: up. UoM: m.
