Webinar: WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 16TH, 2022 AT 2:00 PM EST
Aboriginal title is being asserted/recognized to many parcels across Canada, parcels that were never ceded by Indigenous peoples. This includes Crown land, watercourses, and freehold land.

The Canadian Geodetic Vertical Datum of 2013 (CGVD2013) is a modern geoid-based height reference system, representing the zero-elevation surface for Canada.

This webinar first gives an update on the adoption of CGVD2013 across the country. Second, it explains the relation and transformation between CGVD2013 and the upcoming U.S. lead North American-Pacific Geopotential Datum of 2022 (NAPGD2022) in 2025. Finally, it presents prospects of CGVD2013, including enablers and barriers for its provincial adoption and recommendations to land surveyors in the determination of elevations.
