FC0833.The horizontal coordinates were scaled from a topographic map and have
FC0833.an estimated accuracy of +/- 6 seconds.
FC0833
FC0833.The orthometric height was determined by differential leveling
FC0833.and adjusted by the National Geodetic Survey in June 1991.
FC0833
FC0833.The geoid height was determined by GEOID99.
FC0833
FC0833.The dynamic height is computed by dividing the NAVD 88
FC0833.geopotential number by the normal gravity value computed on the
FC0833.Geodetic Reference System of 1980 (GRS 80) ellipsoid at 45
FC0833.degrees latitude (g = 980.6199 gals.).
FC0833
FC0833.The modeled gravity was interpolated from observed gravity values.

1. A closeup photo of the mark taken by you is required.
2. A 'distant' photo including the mark in the view is highly recommended. Include the compass direction you faced when you took the picture.
