# PROJ-DATUMGRID-NORTH-AMERICA The files in this package can be unpacked in the PROJ data directory. For an installed PROJ this may be /usr/local/share/proj or /usr/share/proj on unix style operating systems. ## About the North America PROJ resource package The North America PROJ resource package is a collections of grids and init-files that are not essential for the functionality of PROJ but still of general interest to PROJ-users in the region specific to the package. ## Included grids ### Canada: NAD27 -> NAD83 *Source*: [Natural Resources Canada](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/b3534942-31ea-59cf-bcc3-f8dc4875081a) *Format*: NTv2 *License*: [Open Government Licence -

It supports direct conversion between NAD83 GPS ellipsoidal heights and NAVD88, GUVD04 and ASVD03 orthometric heights, and will support future vertical datums PRVD02 nad VIVD09. * geoid09_conus.gtx : Conterminous US. * geoid09_ak.gtx : Alaska. * g2009h01.gtx : Hawaii * g2009g01.gtx : Guam and Northern Mariana Islands. * g2009s01.gtx : American Samoa. * g2009p01.gtx : Puerto Rico / U.S. Vigin Islands. ### USA GEOID12B model (partial superseded): NAVD88/PRVD02/VIVD09/GUVD04/NMVD03/ASVD02 height to NAD83(2011)/NAD83(MA11)/NAD83(PA11) *Source*: converted from [NOAA NGS .bin grids](https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/GEOID/GEOID12B/) *Converter*: build_g2012.sh *Format*: GTX *License*: Public Domain GEOID12B is a hybrid geoid height model that can transform between the relevant vertical datum for each region to a NAD 83 ellipsoid height See https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/GEOID/GEOID12B/faq_2012B.shtml for more details. * g2012bu0.gtx : Conterminous US, referenced to NAD83(2011).

Vertical datum: PRVD02 and VIVD09 The g2012bu0.gtx and g2012bp0.gtx grids are superseded by the g2018p0.gtx and g2018p0.gtx grids of GEOID18. ### USA GEOID18 model: NAVD88/PRVD02 height to NAD83(2011) *Source*: converted from [NOAA NGS .bin grids](https://www.ngs.noaa.gov/GEOID/GEOID18/) *Converter*: build_g2018.sh *Format*: GTX *License*: Public Domain GEOID18 is intended for use with coordinates in the North American Datum of 1983 (2011) [NAD 83 (2011) epoch 2010.00]. It provides orthometric heights consistent with the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88), the Puerto Rico Vertical Datum of 2002 (PRVD02), or the Virgin Islands Vertical Datum of 2009 (VIVD09). GEOID18 covers CONUS, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands and supersedes GEOID12B in these regions. GEOID18 does NOT cover Alaska, Hawaii, Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) where users should continue to use GEOID12B. * g2018u0.gtx : Conterminous US, referenced to NAD83(2011).
