I use an app called theodolite. You can snap a photo of the ground and it will overlay gps coordinates with gps altitude on the photo. You could use an optical range finder. They should be accurate enough.
Does CPI really need that degree of accuracy? I would just google earth the elevation and add 20 feet.

I know its a wide tolerance there too, but I need as accurate as possible so that when company QC starts to slide we are still inside the tolerances. Plus I need documentation of what was presented for CPI input On Tue, Feb 11, 2020 at 2:25 PM Mark Radabaugh <[email protected]> wrote: Tape measure? $8/each on Amazon. They can lose a lot of those. Height tolerance is +/-3M (~9’). Each story of a house is ~10’. Did they put it on the first, second, or third floor of the house?
