Following investigation on the Norwegian Mapping Authority website it was obvious that the complete dataset had been revised. As no common bench mark could be found RLR was re-calculated using 2008 data therefore re-instating the station as RLR. Revised RLR factor is 7.266m. RLR (2008) is 11.0m below TGBM G35 N34.
