Tidal datum transfer by using simultaneous observation method based on variation of distances in semi-diurnal area / Faradila Zainon @ Zainal

Tides differ from location to location. A fixed offset from another datum usually used to define the chart datum for a certain area. As the datum is important to start the survey, the datum may be obtained by transfer the tidal datum from the control stations. Therefore, the chart datum can be defin...
