Station Report

Geoid velocity added

To correct for the vertical drift between reference frames, the velocity of the geoid height (VN) is now calculated and incorporated into the calculation of the orthometric height. View documentation to learn more.

Station Coordinates

Unless otherwise noted, all displayed uncertainties are computed at the 68% (1-sigma) confidence level.

Changing these fields will auto-update the station coordinate information below.

The velocities are interpolated from the national Velocity Grid version 7.0.

Location

Accessible by passenger car or light truck and a walk of less than 50 m.

On the e face of a hill, sw of the town of peace river, known as misery mtn. Close to the e face of the cliff approx 160 m from the s summit of the hill. Mkd by a gsc br tab set in a 30 cm dia conc cyl, 15 cm above grd lvl. There are 2 white 10 cm square wooden posts 1.2 m from and on opp sides of the sta. Gsc sta wesley, judah az, and judah are open from the grd.
