  Atmospheric pressure is the basis for the definition of the origin of the associated vertical coordinate system axis.
  `static final VerticalDatumType`
  VerticalDatumType.`DEPTH`
  The zero point of the vertical axis is defined by a surface that has meaning for the purpose which the associated vertical measurements are used for.
  `static final VerticalDatumType`
  VerticalDatumType.`GEOIDAL`
  The zero value of the associated vertical coordinate system axis is defined to approximate a constant potential surface, usually the geoid.
  `static final VerticalDatumType`
  VerticalDatumType.`OTHER_SURFACE`
  In some cases, e.g. oil exploration and production, a geological feature, such as the top or bottom of a geologically identifiable and meaningful subsurface layer, is used as a vertical datum.
