Specifies values for the type of local or permanent reference datum for vertical gravity-based (i.e., elevation and vertical depth) and measured depth coordinates within the context of a well. This list includes local points (e.g., kelly bushing) used as a datum and vertical reference datums (e.g., mean sea level).
