In which year did China measure the Leshan Giant Buddha?

In 1962, Leshan Cultural Department repaired the Giant Buddha, and the height was 71 meters. The basic point of its measurement is from the bottom of the giant Buddha's pedestal to the top of the Buddha, and the segmented rope measurement method is adopted, which has a great error. But this data has been used.

Since 1981, many units have measured the height of Leshan Giant Buddha, using advanced instruments. From 1981 to 1982, Leshan Urban Construction Committee asked Sichuan Survey and Design Institute to measure the result: from the top of the Buddha to the sole of the foot, "the height is 6.5 meters."

In p>1984, the design team of Southwest Water Conservancy and Electric Power Survey Institute measured that the height from the top of Buddha to the sole of foot was 6m; The height from the top of the Buddha to the bottom of the treadbase is 62.1 meters.

In p>1986, the survey team of Sichuan Water Resources and Hydropower Survey and Design Institute and the survey team of East China Survey and Design Institute of Ministry of Water Resources and Electric Power jointly adopted close-range photography, and the result was that the height from the top of the Buddha to the sole of the foot was 59.2 meters.

In p>1987, Wuhan Technical University of Surveying and Mapping adopted close-range photography, and the result showed that the sitting height was 58.7 meters from the sole of the foot to the top of the head. Obviously, the measured results of surveying and mapping units for four times over the years are close. The height of the giant Buddha is between 58.7 meters and 6.5 meters, and the error is within 1.8 meters. Together with the 2-meter-high pedestal, the height of the existing giant Buddha is between 6.8 and 62.6 meters.
