Site Identification of the GNSS Monument Site Name : Whistler Four Character ID : WSLR Monument Inscription : 967000 IERS DOMES Number : 40141M001 CDP Number : (A4) Monument Description : CONCRETE PIER, 60cm DIAMETER Height of the Monument : 3m Monument Foundation : RE-ENFORCED STEEL IN BEDROCK Foundation Depth : 1.5m Marker Description : BRASS PLATE; FORCED CENTER STAINLESS STEEL Date Installed : 1996-09-12 Geologic Characteristic : BEDROCK Bedrock Type : METAMORPHIC Bedrock Condition : WEATHERED Fracture Spacing : 50 - 100cm Fault zones nearby : Cascadia Subduction Zone Distance/activity : (multiple lines) Additional Information : (multiple lines) : This station is part of the Western Canada : Deformation Array (WCDA) as well as the : Canadian Active Control System (CACS). : ******************************************** : The GPS reference mark consists of a brass : plate with a forced centered stainless steel : bolt. The brass plate is embedded on top of : a 3.0 metre high concrete pier, 60 cm in : diameter. The concrete pier is anchored to : exposed bedrock using steel re-enforcement : bars to a depth of 1.5 m. The antenna is : attached to the brass forced centered plate : via a 10 cm high anodize aluminum base. : This base provides a constant height : above the brass plate and also permits : the antenna to be referenced to north. : 2.
