The Victorian Geodetic Baseline

Abstract

A brief discussion of the international and national background of baseline measurement is presented. This discussion also includes a description of the equipment employed. The details of the Victorian baseline measurement are given, demonstrating, via the comparison with the New South Wales 10 foot Standard, that the Victorian, New South Wales and Queensland baselines have a direct connection. Finally the history of the Victorian 10 foot rods, from 1859 to 1986, is given along with a pictorial record of their physical construction.
