Vertical Datum - Mean sea level

U - Unbeaconed - Occupied, monumented

# Unchecked elevation

+ Quality rating (1:best: 3:worst)

 

The relative strength of position value shown on the Control Points Coordinates list for each quadrangle is not an indicator of the accuracy. It is a reliability number assigned by the USGS based on the number of checks obtained for that survey point.

As an example, an occupied point with several connections to the surrounding network is a 1 (highest reliability). Whereas, a point positioned by two rays intersecting has no check and is assigned a value of 3 (lowest reliability).

(1). Indicates a checked occupied station.

(2). Intersected with 3 or more directions.

(3). Intersected station with no checks - uncertain position - use with caution.

# Unchecked elevation

** These stations are unidentifiable

 

+ Position Reliability

1. Established by Doppler Satellite measurements, or a checked occupied station

2. Position established by side shot from main line

3. Intersected with three or more directions

4. Intersected station, no checks - poor position

5. Limited number of satellite passes - no position reliability established

 

++Elevation Reliability

1. Elevation measured by Doppler Satellite methods and occupied stations with checked reciprocal vertical angle elevations

2. Elevation established by side shots from main line

3. Intersected station with elevation checks from several vertical angles

4. Intersected station with elevation checks from two or more vertical angles

5. Intersected station with no check elevation - very poor elevation

6. Limited number of satellite passes - no position reliability established
