Reference frame for heights LN02 (National vertical network 1902, official heights)

National precise levelling 1902 (in the old reference system for height LN02): The official reference frame for height based on the "Nivellement de Précision" by the Swiss Geodetic Commission (1864-1887) and the new observations and remeasurements of the national levelling network from 1902 until today without taking gravity into account. The reference frame shows a good internal accuracy, but there are distortions up to decimeters. Direct height transformation LHN95 <-> LN02 is only approximations.
