20 NATIONAL TIDAL DATUM EPOCH (NTDE) A common time period to which tidal datums are referenced A specific 19 year period that includes the longest periodic tidal variations caused by the astronomic tide-producing forces. Averages out long term seasonal meteorological, hydrologic, and oceanographic fluctuations. Provides a nationally consistent tidal datum network (bench marks) by accounting for seasonal and apparent environmental trends in sea level that affects the accuracy of tidal datums. The NWLON provides the data required to maintain the epoch and make primary and secondary determinations of tidal datums.

25 VERTICAL DATUM: A base elevation used to determine heights or depths. TIDAL DATUM Defined by a certain phase of the tide (ex. MHW) Are local datums In order that they may be recovered and updated when needed, such datums are referred to fixed points on land known as Bench Marks GEODETIC DATUM Is a set of reference points on the earth's surface against which position / elevation measurements are made.

27 NATIONAL SPATIAL REFERENCE SYSTEM The National Spatial Reference System (NSRS): All geodetic control contained in the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) Data Base. A, B, First, Second and Third-Order horizontal and vertical control, Geoid models such as GEOID 03, precise GPS orbits and Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS), observed by NGS. Data submitted by other Federal, State, and local agencies, academic institutions and the private sector
28 GEODETIC DATUMS The National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD29): Vertical control datum established for vertical control in the United States by the general adjustment of Mean sea level held fixed at the sites of 26 tide gauges, 21 in the U.S.A. and 5 in Canada. The datum was defined by the observed heights of mean sea level at the 26 tide gauges The datum (was) not mean sea level, the geoid, or any other equipotential surface. The North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88): Vertical control datum established in 1991 by the minimum-constraint adjustment of the Canadian-Mexican-U.S. leveling observations. Held fixed the height of the primary tidal bench mark, referenced to the new International Great Lakes Datum of 1985 local mean sea level height value, at Father Point/Rimouski, Quebec, Canada. Additional tidal bench mark elevations were not used due to the demonstrated variations in sea surface topography,
