Clearance heights (Bridges, power lines etc) are now measured from HAT on UK Admiralty charts, for added safety.

[@SeaPpl]

Yup, thats mentioned clearly in BA5011

[@ibrahimopeyemishittu5956]

Need more of this especially a situation whereby all the datums can be related for acquired data for different purposes

[@josephlai9759]

As always, your instruction is both super clear, concise and a joy to watch and learn though I must say I find the narration a bit fast to catch at one instant. Had to rewind and listen again.But that's only me, a second-language English speaker. Thanks once again for sharing.

Could you do a video on using chart datum and ordance datum to add an offset to tidal heights in order to get more accurate readings, I hope that makes sense, I am an undergrad student and would love to learn more

[@mohammednavigateur3865]
