Description:

In 2017, the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) completed the NADCON 5.0 project, whose purpose was to update and/or replace all previous versions of NGS’s NADCON, GEOCON and GEOCON11 products. These earlier products were a combination of transformation data (grids) and software to apply the transformations to coordinate data. Although the NADCON 5.0 project generated the transformation grids, it did not produce a stand-alone computer program to apply the transformations to coordinate data. Rather, all of the horizontal datum transformations computed by the NADCON 5.0 project were incorporated into NGS’s two primary coordinate transformation and conversion tools: NCAT (in late 2017) and VDatum (scheduled for late 2019.)
