CGVD2013(CGG2013) height

Attributes

Unit: metre

Geodetic CRS: CGVD2013(CGG2013) height

Datum: Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 2013 (CGG2013)

Data source: EPSG

Information source: Geodetic Survey Division, Natural Resources Canada.

Revision date: 2022-06-29

Scope: Geodesy, engineering survey, topographic mapping.

Remarks: Replaces CGVD28 height (CRS code 5713). CGVD2013(CGG2013) height is realized by geoid model CGG2013 (CT code 9246). Replaced by CGVD2013a(1997 / 2002 / 2010) height. CGG2013a is identical to CGG2013 except in the western sector of Lake of the Woods.

Area of use: Canada - onshore and offshore - Alberta; British Columbia; Manitoba; New Brunswick; Newfoundland and Labrador; Northwest Territories; Nova Scotia; Nunavut; Ontario; Prince Edward Island; Quebec; Saskatchewan; Yukon.

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