Procedure
The line of levels is to run dougle rodded lines. In this method to change points rear together are selected and two for sites are taken from the same set up of the instrument similarly to back sites are taken from the next setup of the instrument. In this manner to independent values of the heights of the instrument are obtained at each setup. These two values should not differ by more than 0.001 m from the previous difference.
