Site Identification of the GNSS Monument Site Name : CANSO NSACS Four Character ID : CNSO Monument Inscription : 250020 (labelled) IERS DOMES Number : CDP Number : Monument Description : STEEL MAST Height of the Monument : 8.00 (m) Monument Foundation : CONCRETE BLOCK Foundation Depth : 1.00 (m) Marker Description : TOP OF THREADED BOLT AT TOP OF MAST Date Installed : 2015-07-27T00:00Z Geologic Characteristic : PIT RUN GRAVEL Bedrock Type : NONE Bedrock Condition : Fracture Spacing : Fault zones nearby : Distance/activity : Additional Information : This station is part of the Nova Scotia Active : Control Stations network. The GPS reference mark : consists of a 5/8"-11 steel bolt at the top of a : steel mast. The mast is a 3 inch diameter : galvanized steel tube and is 3.7 m (12 ft) : long. The antenna is attached to the threaded : bolt of a 0.0771 m high SECO mount screwed to : the top of the GPS reference mark (bolt). The : mast is mounted to the cinder block wall of the : school which sits on a concrete foundation : The mounts extend through the : cinder block wall and are fastened to the : interior wall using 15 cm back plates. 2.
