What is the elevation of PETRONAS tower?

The Petronas towers reach a height of 1483 feet (452m) tall, which was the tallest building in the world at the date of its completion, measured to the highest point. Lots of info at this site.. http://www.greatbuildings.com/buildings/Petronas_Towers.html


What is the difference between invert level and invert elevation?

Invert Level and Invert Elevation are one in the same. Invert Level = Invert Elevation (IE).


How do you calculate the invert elevation of a manhole?

Invert elevations can usually be found directly on as-built drawings of the sewer facility. The simplest way to calculate an invert elevation of a manhole is to measure the depth of the manhole from the surface to the pipe invert. The invert elevation equals the ground or rim elevation minus this depth. If you do not know the rim elevation or invert elevation, a surveyor must measure the invert and/or rim elevation with reference to a nearby elevation benchmark (see: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Elevation_Benchmark.jpg). Also, upstream and downstream invert elevations in a manhole typically differ by about 0.1 feet.


What is invert in drainage system?

The invert is the exact elevation of a drainage facility or pipe where the water is designed to flow. If a 2 foot dia. pipe crosses the road, one end of the pipe will be higher than the other, say 6 inches of fall. Say the high end (elevation measured at the end of the pipe at the flowline) is at elev. 325.00 The elev of the low end at the end flowline would be 324.50. 325.00 is the invert in 324.50 is the invert out

How is an elevation map measured?

An elevation map is usually measured using remote sensing techniques like LiDAR or radar to capture the topography of the Earth’s surface. These methods use sensors to calculate the distance between the Earth's surface and the sensor, creating a detailed map of the elevation at various points. GPS technology can also be used to determine elevation by measuring the position of a receiver on Earth's surface in relation to known elevations elsewhere.
