The DUN58-NZGD2000 grid enables the conversion of normal-orthometric heights from the Dunedin 1958 local vertical datum directly to New Zealand Geodetic Datum 2000 (NZGD2000) ellipsoidal heights.

DUN58-NZGD2000 is published on a one arc-minute grid (approximately 1.8 kilometres) extending over the benchmarks that nominally define the extent of the Dunedin 1958 vertical datum (168.4° E to 171.3° E, 43.9° S to 46.5° S).

The conversion value is represented by the attribute “delta”, in metres.

This grid is a combination of New Zealand Quasigeoid 2016 [NZGeoid2016](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/3418) and the [DUN58-NZVD2016](https://data.linz.govt.nz/layer/3428) height conversion grid. Where NZGeoid2016 is the reference surface for the New Zealand Vertical Datum 2016 (NZVD2016), while the DUN58-NZVD2016 grid models the difference between the Dunedin 1958 vertical datum and NZVD2016 using the LINZ GPS-levelling marks.

More information on converting heights between vertical datums can be found [on the LINZ website](http://www.linz.govt.nz/data/geodetic-services/coordinate-conversion/converting-between-nzvd2016-nzgd2000-and-local-vertical-datums).
