چکیده
A consistent reference system for height determination at the national scale supports economic activity and is an essential component of the basic infrastructure that enables good governance of our natural resources.

While the height reference system supports numerous applications, from highway engineering to monitoring water resources, it is also referred to in many legal documents related to land and water management and safety such as easement, flood control and boundary demarcation.
