VERTCON 3.0 released as beta, via integration into NCAT 2.0 (also in beta)
Figured I’d share this here.
NGS has just released VERTCON 3.0 for beta testing. It is integrated into the NGS Coordinate Conversion and Transformation Tool or (NCAT) Version 2.0, which is also available for beta testing. Both of these releases provide improved and new vertical datum transformations for users.
A few important notes:
- Currently, NCAT only supports orthometric-to-orthometric and ellipsoidal-to-ellipsoidal height transformations.
- Currently, NCAT does not transform between orthometric and ellipsoidal heights.
- The interface for performing a Multipoint Conversion (via file upload) has changed a bit as compared to NCAT 1.0.
Remember, this is a Beta release, thus accessible via beta.ngs.noaa.gov or the hyperlinks above.
Feedback on this Beta release can be sent to to [email protected] and assistance can be provided by: viewing this 15 minute instructional video, contacting your local Regional Geodetic Advisor, or contacting the NCAT team via email.
Full release info from NGS News available here, and as always anyone can subscribe to one or more NGS Newsletters here.
