Source:
Source description: The precision leveling heights were established by Survey of India during 1990s season. The leveling network is connected to the Indian Vertical Network.
Process step:
Process description: The Bhutanese leveling line was connected to the nearest available bench mark stations from the neighboring states of the India. The precision leveling height observations are based on the precise level instruments attaining primary class heights within accuracy tolerance of back and fore leveling in the order of less than 8 mm √k, 'k' in kilometer.
