Tidal level information for surveyors
Determination of MHWSThere is no definitive method for establishing mean high-water springs (MHWS) boundaries – it requires a tailored approach that considers factors like hydraulic gradient, land type and the survey accuracy that is required.

Pre-2010 normal-orthometric height orders
Before May 2010, normal-orthometric heights were categorised using orders based on observation method and survey significance. This order framework was replaced by the Standard for the Geospatial Accuracy Framework (LINZS25005) and Standard for Tiers,…

Geodetic datum conversions
Coordinates can be transformed between geodetic datums by using either a transformation grid or a similarity transformation. This section includes examples of transforming to and from New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000).

New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 ellipsoidal heights
New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000) coordinates include an ellipsoidal height measured using GNSS (global navigation satellite system) observations. Ellipsoidal heights often need to be converted to a vertical datum.

New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 deformation model
The New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000) deformation model is used to adjust coordinates for ongoing crustal deformation. It takes into account tectonic motion and some major earthquakes to ensure that coordinates of survey marks and other features…

Computation of the vertical datum relationship grids for NZVD2016
Vertical datum relationship grids allow the transformation of local vertical datum heights to NZVD2016. These transformation grids were calculated by using observation points with both an ellipsoidal and a normal-orthometric height.

Vertical datum relationship grids
Vertical datum relationship grids are reference surfaces that can be used to transform heights between the 13 official local vertical datums and New Zealand Vertical Datum 2016 (NZVD2016).

Reference ellipsoids
An important feature of a geodetic datum is the reference surface. The reference surface approximates the shape of the Earth, so that geodetic coordinates can be located on a curved surface. The most common reference surface for geodetic datums is an…

Gravity and the geoid
Geoids and quasigeoids are reference surfaces that accurately represent the Earth’s shape and gravitational field. By collecting gravity data (which differs with latitude, elevation, geology and time), gravity field models are created to compute the geoid…
