D. Selection of the corresponding stations.

In addition to the registers kept by the Government Observatories of Bombay,
Madras, and Calcutta, we are indebted to the scientific zeal of several gentlemen,
whom we had the pleasure of meeting during our travels in India, for a large
number of observations corresponding to those taken by ourselves.

These observations, it is hardly necessary to add, have formed a most valuable
basis for the calculation of our heights, as they enabled us to connect every point of
our observations with the sea shore, or with inland stations of known elevation. At
comparatively few places only observations had to be interpolated, and this when
our hours of observation did not exactly coincide with those of the corresponding
stations.

The following table contains the geographical co-ordinates of our corresponding
stations, and is succeeded by a description of each station, together with a few
general remarks.
