Hi Even, I tried the fix with the CRS’s I sent, and it worked. But as I mentioned, my real target CRS is a custom projected system (below), and it still fails with what seems to be the same error as in my original email.

In fact, if I code up the following pipeline and initialize a transform object: strPipe = "+proj=pipeline\ +step +proj=axisswap +order=2, 1\ +step +proj=unitconvert +xy_in=deg +xy_out=rad\ +step +inv +proj=vgridshift +grids=HT2_0.gtx +multiplier=1\ +step +proj=tmerc +lat_0=49.351346659616 +lon_0=-123.20266499149 +k=1\ +x_0=15307.188 +y_0=6540.975 +ellps=GRS80"; The call to Transform() gives: (15307.1880, 6540.9748, 308.042) -- XY matches above, but now I get the expected Z (-0.005). However, I’d like to avoid assembling pipelines for every conversion/transform. Any arrows left in your quiver?

For reporting the problem, I “packaged up” a case with CRS’s with EPGS codes. For the actual problem I’m working, the target CRS is a custom projection –no EPSG.

Using the plain EPSG codes EPSG:4955 -> EPSG:4617+5713 would be much preferable here Even Le 18/03/2022 à 21:14, Steve Riddell a écrit : Hi, I’m getting an error (below) using GDAL trying to set up a transformation between NAD83(CSRS) geodetic, w/ ellipsoidal heights, and NAD83(CSRS) geodetic, CGVD28 heights. Similar transformations work fine on some datums, but fail on others. Hope someone can offer some insight. Note the if I don't use the PROJ4_GRIDS extension, I don't get the error, but I don't get the geoid adjustment either.
