Geodolite Network Measurements. The red lines in the above map show lines measured between two stations using the Geodolite. The blue dots represent stations in the network. Clicking on a station will take you to a list of all line lengths measured in this network.

The Geodolite is a single color laser used for electronic distance measurements (EDM). Geodolite measurements were conducted by the USGS from the early 70's through the early 90's when crustal deformation began to be measured using the Global Positioning System (GPS). See Savage, J. C., and W. H., Prescott, Precision of Geodolite measurements, J. Geophys. Res., 78, 6001-6007, 1973, for more information about the Geodolite.
