Baseline is the longest survey line which is passing through the area which is to be surveyed.
A baseline in surveying is a line connecting two points of known coordinates. It serves as a reference point from which all other measurements can be taken. Baselines are typically used to measure distances, angles and elevations when using instruments such as theodolites, Total Stations and GPS. This allows surveyors to accurately map an area and create detailed topographical maps.
