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.

Location
Located on North Nova Education Centre
This station is part of the Nova Scotia Active Control Stations network. The GPS reference mark consists of a 5/8"-11 steel bolt at the top of a steel mast. The mast is a 3 inch diameter galvanized steel tube and is 4.0 m (13 ft) long. The antenna is attached to the threaded bolt of a 0.0771 m high SECO mount screwed to the top of the GPS reference mark (bolt). The mast is mounted to a steel wall of the school which sits on a concrete foundation The mounts extend through the steel wall and are fastened to the interior wall using 15 cm back plates.
