SECTION H.
OBSERVATIONS FOR THE DETERMINATION OF GEOGRAPHICAL
CO-ORDINATES.
A. INDIA.
Group I. Assam and Khassia Hills: Stations 1 to 5.
Group II. Delta of the Ganges and Brahmaputra: Stations 6 to 9.
Group III. Valley of the Ganges and its Tributaries: Stations 10 to 18.
Group IV. Panjab, Sindh, and Kach: Stations 19 to 30.
Group V. Central and Southern India: Stations 31 to 43.
B. HIGH ASIA,
a. Himalaya.
Group VI. Bhutan to Nepal: Stations 44 to 49.
Group VII. Kamaon and Garhval: Stations 50 to 55.
Group VIII. Simla to Hazara: Stations 56 to 64.
b. Tibet.
Group IX. Gnari Khorsum: Stations 65 to 73.
Group X. Ladak: Stations 74 to 83.
Group XI. Balti and Hasora: Stations 84 to 92.
c. Karakoritm and Kueriliien.
Group XH. Turkistan: Stations 93 to 113.
Concluding general remarks and results.
In India, the operations of the Great Trigonometrical Survey under men so
distinguished as Lambert, Hodgson, Everest, and the present able superintendents,
Colonel A. S. Waugh and Major H. L. Thuillier, are well known to be executed with as
perfect accuracy and fulness of detail as the best existing. In places, therefore, the
positions of which have been previously fixed by the general triangulation, we give
their determinations as definitive results. But even in such stations our own obser-
vations were indispensable for obtaining Time and Meridian.
