A DEFLEC18 deflection of the vertical can be computed for a specific geographic location or for a file of input points. Position coordinates should be in the appropriate North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83) reference frame.
Area | Ellipsoid Reference Frame | Vertical Datum | Latitude | Longitude | ||
Min | Max | Min | Max | |||
Conterminous United States | NAD83 (2011) | NAVD88 | 24N | 58N | 60W | 130W |
Puerto Rico/U.S. Virgin Islands | NAD83 (2011) | PRVD02 and VIVD09 | 15N | 21N | 64W | 69W |
The formats below may be used for entering latitude and longitude. Degrees, minutes, and seconds must be separated by spaces. (Note that commas are not valid for DEFLEC18 computations.)
