  6. Height above mean sea level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_above_mean_sea_level

    Height above mean sea level. Height above mean sea level is a measure of a location's vertical distance ( height, elevation or altitude) in reference to a vertical datum based on a historic mean sea level. In geodesy, it is formalized as orthometric height. The zero level varies in different countries due to different reference points and ...

  7. North American Vertical Datum of 1988 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_Vertical...

    The definition of NAVD 88 uses the Helmert orthometric height, which calculates the location of the geoid (which approximates MSL) from modeled local gravity. [citation needed] The NAVD 88 model is based on then-available measurements, and remains fixed despite later improved geoid models. [citation needed]

  8. Mount Fuji - Wikipedia

  9. Elevation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elevation

    A topographical map is the main type of map used to depict elevation, often through contour lines. In a Geographic Information System (GIS), digital elevation models (DEM) are commonly used to represent the surface (topography) of a place, through a raster (grid) dataset of elevations. Digital terrain models are another way to represent terrain ...
