BASIC INFORMATION

Core identification information for the metadata record
State Leveling Network
Albania (ALB)

The State Leveling Network is one of the constituent networks of the National Geodetic Reference System. This network will enable the control and assessment of the accuracy of the gravimetric geoid on which the new vertical geodetic reference will be based for the determination of orthometric heights in the territory of the Republic of Albania. This network is designed in two orders. Currently, for the first order of this network, 2 leveling lines with a total length of 125.24 km have been built, which are Tirana-Durrës with a length of 58.75 km (26 benchmarks) and Vorë-Shëngjin with a length of 66.49 km (25 benchmarks). For more information, contact the email: info@asig.gov.al The data are in accordance with the State Standard for Technical Specifications of Geospatial Information in Albania. Topic: Determination of the geodetic reference frame and geodetic control.

QUALITY AND CONFORMANCE

Data quality and standards conformance

The implementation of the State Leveling Network was carried out during the period June-November 2024 within the framework of the partial construction of the networks comprising the Albanian Geodetic Reference Framework (KRGJSH). This project was carried out under the coordination of ASIG in cooperation with Greek specialists in the field of leveling. This network is designed in two orders. Currently, for the first order of this network, 2 leveling lines have been built, which are Tirana-Durrës with a length of 58.75 km (26 benchmarks) and Vorë-Shëngjin with a length of 66.49 km (25 benchmarks). The two first-order leveling lines are designed in the form of an open polygon, connected by a node point (RII 010) in such a way as to connect the two tide gauge stations of Durrës and Shëngjin. The first-order Leveling Network is based on the geometric leveling method according to the first-class procedure starting from the Durrës Tide Gauge, while the second-order Leveling Network will be based on the GNSS method by determining orthometric heights referred to the precise gravimetric geoid.
