Using a high-precision angle measurement, the Prussian Geodetic Institute measured the positions of the mires from the Helmert tower. The aim was to prove the displacement of the earth's axis of rotation, to determine the shape of the earth and the flattening of the poles. The Prussian Geodetic Institute in Potsdam was a world leader in the imperial era.
