The astronomical latitude and longitude were determined here in 1914 by Sir F. De Filippi. The station has not been connected to G.T. triangulation, and the geodetic values are therefore not yet•known. The longitude was determined by wireless telegraphic signals transmitted from Lahore and timed simultaneously at Dehra Dan and Kashgar.
The station is situated in the old Muhammadan cemetery between the British and Russian consulates north of Kline-shahr. The exact ynature of the station is not yet known (1921).
