 Vertical Datum

A vertical datum is a surface of zero elevation to which heights of various points are referred in order that those heights be in a consistent system. More broadly, a vertical datum is the entire system of the zero elevation surface and methods of determining heights relative to that surface. Over the years, many different types of vertical datums have been used. The most predominant types today are tidal datums and geodetic datums.
