(surveying) A surveyed line established with more than usual care, to which surveys are referred for coordination and correlation. 2. (photogrammetry) The line between the principal points of two consecutive vertical air photographs. It is usually measured on one photograph after the principal point of the other has been transferred. 3. (radio navigation systems) The shorter arc of the great circle joining two radio transmitting stations of a navigation system. 4. (triangulation) The side of one of a series of coordinated triangles the length of which is measured with prescribed accuracy and precision and from which lengths of the other triangle sides are obtained by computation.base line

(electronics) The line traced on amplitude-modulated indicators which corresponds to the power level of the weakest echo detected by the radar; it is retraced with every pulse transmitted by the radar but appears as a nearly continuous display on the scope. (engineering) A surveyed line, established with more than usual care, to which surveys are referred for coordination and correlation. A cardinal line extending east and west along the astronomic parallel passing through the initial point, along which standard township, section, and quarter-section corners are established.

or·bi·to·mea·tal plane1. a line approximating the base of the cranium, passing from the infraorbital ridge to the midline of the occiput, intersecting the superior margin of the external auditory meatus; the cranium is in the anatomic position when the base line lies in the horizontal plane and right and left sides are level. 2. a standard craniometric reference plane passing through the right and left porion and the left orbitale; drawn on the profile radiograph or photograph from the superior margin of the acoustic meatus to the orbitale. Synonym(s): auriculoinfraorbital plane, eye-ear plane, Frankfort horizontal plane, Frankfort plane, infraorbitomeatal planebase lineAn imaginary cephalometric line from the infraorbital ridge through the middle of the external auditory meatus to midline of occiput.See also: lineBase Line
