Korkeusarvolla

Korkeusarvolla is a Finnish term that translates to "with altitude value" or "at altitude value". It refers to a concept used in various technical and scientific fields, particularly in surveying, cartography, and aviation. In these contexts, it signifies a measurement or position that is referenced against a specific vertical datum or elevation.

For instance, in surveying, a point on the ground might have a height value associated with it, indicating its distance above sea level or another established reference plane. This korkeusarvolla is crucial for creating accurate maps and understanding topographical features. Similarly, in aviation, aircraft altitudes are constantly monitored and reported with their corresponding korkeusarvolla, ensuring safe separation and navigation.

The specific datum or reference point used for the korkeusarvolla can vary depending on the application and geographic location. Common datums include mean sea level, geoid models, or even local control points. Understanding the korkeusarvolla is therefore essential for interpreting spatial data correctly and performing tasks that require precise vertical positioning.
