SPIRIT LEVELING IN NEVADA, 1897 TO 1916,

INCLUSIVE.

INTRODUCTION.

Previous publication. All results of spirit leveling in Nevada previously published by the United States Geological Survey in Bulletin 

488 and all the results of later work are included in this report. The 

elevations are based on 1912 adjustment heights of bench marks along 

the precise-level lines of the United States Coast and Geodetic 

Survey.

Personnel. The field work previous to 1903 was done under the 

general direction of R. U. Goode, geographer; that for 1903 to 190(>. 

inclusive, under E. M. Douglas, geographer; that for 1907 under 

R. B. Marshall, geographer; and the later work under T. G. Gerdine 

!>nd G. R. Davis. geographers, under the general direction of Jv. :B. 

Marshall, chief geographer. The names of the respective leve.lmen 

sire given in the introductions to the several lists. The office work of^ 

computation, adjustment, and preparation of lists was done mainly 

by S. S. Gannett, geographer, under the general direction of K M. 

Douglas, geographer.

Classification. The elevations are classified as precise or primary, 

according to the methods employed in their determination. Precise 

elevations are determined by lines of levels run either in both forward 

and backward directions or by simultaneous double-rodded lines, a 

high-grade instrument being used and special precautions being taken 

in observations and reduction to correct errors and make the line continuously good throughout. Primary elevations are determined 

with the Y level, precautions being taken against only the principal 

errors and the levels being run mostly in circuits of single lines. 

The allowable limit of error observed in the precise work already 

done by the Geological Survey in this State is represented in feet by 

0.017 VD and that for primary work by 0.05 VD, in which D is the 

length of the circuit in miles.

Hench marks. The standard bench marks a re,of two forms. The 

first form is a circular bronze or aluminum tablet (C and &\ PL I), 

3^ inches in diameter and £ inch thick, having a 3-inch stem, which 

is cemented in a drill hole in solid rock in the wall of some public 

building, a bridge abutment, or other substantial masonry structure. 

The second form (F, PL I), used where masonry or rock is not avail5

able, consists of a hollow wrought-iron post 3^ inches in outer diameter and 4 feet in length, which is set about 3 feet in the ground. 

The bottom is spread out to a width of 10 inches in order to give a 

firm bearing in the earth, and a bronze or aluminum-bronze cap is 

riveted upon the top of the post. A third style of bench mark, with 

abbreviated lettering (B and Z>, PI. I), is used for unimportant 

points. This consists of a special copper nail 1-| inches in length 

driven through a copper washer £ inch in dkmeter. The tablets as 

well as the caps on the iron posts are appropriately lettered, and 

cooperation by a State is indicated by the addition of the State name 

(£,P1.I).

The numbers stamped on the bench marks described in the following pages represent the elevations to the nearest foot as determined by the levelman. These numbers are stamped with -^-inch 

steel dies on the tablets or post caps, to the left of the word " Feet." 

The office adjustment of the notes and the reduction to mean sealevel datum may so change some of the figures that the original 

markings are 1 or 2 feet in error. It is assumed that engineers and 

others who have occasion to use the bench-mark elevations will apply 

to the Director of the United States Geological Survey, at Washington, D. C., for the adjusted values, and will use the markings ;is 

identification numbers only.

Datum. All elevations determined by the United States Geological 

Survey and United States Coast and Geodetic Survey are referred 

to mean sea level, which is the level that the sea would assume if 

the influence of winds and tides were eliminated. This level is not 

the elevation determined from the mean of the highest and the 

lowest tides, nor is it the half sum of the mean of all the high tides 

and the mean of all the low tides, which is called the half-tide level. 

Mean sea level is the average height of the water, all stages of the tide 

Iteing considered. It is determined from observations made by means 

of tidal gages placed at stations where local conditions, such as long, 

narrow bays, rivers, and like features, will not affect the height of the 

water. To obtain even approximately correct results these observations must extend over at least one lunar month, and if accuracy is 

desired the}' must extend over several years. At ocean stations the 

half-tide level and the mean sea level usually differ but little. It is 

assumed that there is no difference between the mean sea levels 

determined from observations in the Atlantic Ocean, the 'Gulf of 

Mexico, and the Pacific Ocean.

The connection with tidal stations for bench marks in certain 

areas that lie at some distance from the seacoast is still uncertain, 

and this fact is indicated by the addition of a letter or word to 

the right of the word " Datum " on tablets or posts. For these 

areas corrections for published results will be made from time to

Survey, the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, or other 

Government organizations are extended.

or partly in Nevada have been published by the United States Geological Survey up to July 1, 1917. Maps now .in stock may be
