EG1487.The horizontal coordinates were established by GPS observations
EG1487.and adjusted by the National Geodetic Survey in June 2012.
EG1487
EG1487.NAD 83(2011) refers to NAD 83 coordinates where the reference frame has
EG1487.been affixed to the stable North American tectonic plate. See
EG1487.NA2011 for more information.
EG1487
EG1487.The horizontal coordinates are valid at the epoch date displayed above
EG1487.which is a decimal equivalence of Year/Month/Day.
EG1487
EG1487.The NAVD 88 height was computed by applying the VERTCON shift value to
EG1487.the NGVD 29 height (displayed under SUPERSEDED SURVEY CONTROL.)
EG1487
EG1487.Significant digits in the geoid height do not necessarily reflect accuracy.
EG1487.GEOID18 height accuracy estimate available here.

EG1487
EG1487.The X, Y, and Z were computed from the position and the ellipsoidal ht.
EG1487
EG1487.The Laplace correction was computed from DEFLEC18 derived deflections.
EG1487
EG1487.The ellipsoidal height was determined by GPS observations
EG1487.and is referenced to NAD 83.
