A spot height may be expressed as AOD for "above ordnance datum". Usually mean sea level (MSL) is used for the datum. Malin Ordnance Datum Derivation of vertical height or depth (in metres) In the Republic of Ireland, OD for the Ordnance Survey of Ireland is Malin Ordnance Datum: the Mean Sea Level (MSL) at Portmoor Pier, Malin Head, County Donegal, between 1960 and 1969. 5731 EPSG Projection 5731 - Malin Head height Metres Derivation of Altitude OD based on Mean Sea Level, Malin Head 1960-1969 See gis.epa.ie for full details on data resource ESRI Shapefile 10.x Water Framework Directive Enviromental Protection Agency Data Manager +353-53-9160600 +353-53-9160601 PO Box 3000 Johnstown Castle Estate Wexford Co.
