Specifications for the third and fourth order leveling
1 Scope
This standard specifies the principles for the establishment of the third and
fourth order leveling network, leveling methods, precision indicators and
technical requirements.
This standard applies to the deployment of the third and fourth order leveling
network.

3 Terms and definitions
The following terms and definitions apply to this standard.
3.1
Node
The benchmark in the leveling network that connects at least three leveling
lines.
3.2
Leveling line
Leveling line between two adjacent nodes in the same order leveling network.
3.3
Section
Leveling line between two adjacent basic benchmarks in a leveling line.
3.4
Leveling section
Leveling line between two adjacent benchmarks.
3.5
Connect leveling
The observation of including a benchmark or other elevation point in a
leveling line.
3.6
stone every 4 km ~ 8 km; in densely populated and economically developed
areas, it can be shortened to 2 km ~ 4 km; in desert areas, the leveling branch
lines can be increased to about 10 km. The mark stone may not be buried when
the branch line length is within 15 km.
4.5 Line naming and benchmarking numbering
4.5.1 The leveling line uses the abbreviation of the starting and ending
geographical names as the line name, the order of starting and ending
geographical names shall be from west to east, and from north to south. As for
the ring name, it is composed of the geographical name of the largest place in
the ring followed by the letter “ring”. The grade of the third and fourth order
leveling lines are respectively represented by III and IV in front of the line name.
4.5.2 The benchmark on the line shall start from the starting benchmark of the
line, the point is numbered in the sequence of 1, 2, 3..., the point number
sequence along ring shall be clockwise, the points shall be numbered in the
sequence of number 1, 2, 3...
4.5.3 Leveling branch line is named by the surveyed elevation point name
followed by the letter “branch”. The benchmark stone of the branch line is
numbered in the sequence of number 1, 2, 3... along the direction from the
starting benchmark to the surveyed elevation point.
4.5.4 When using the old benchmark, the old benchmark name and number
shall be used. If it is really necessary to renumber it, the new name shall be
followed by a bracket to indicate the name of the benchmark where it was buried.
4.6 Connection of new line and surveyed line
4.6.1 The starting point and end point of the newly established leveling line shall
be the benchmarks of the surveyed higher or equivalent order leveling line.
4.6.2 When the newly established third and fourth order leveling line is within 4
km away from each surveyed equivalent benchmark, it shall be subject to
connect leveling or adjoining leveling. In case of adjoining leveling, it shall check
the surveyed benchmarks in accordance with the provisions of clause 7.8.
4.6.3 For the adjoining leveling of the benchmarks on the sur...
