final measurement

One meaning of 'Aufmaß' is 'measurement of finished work' (from Ernst = aufmessen).

Your context is road surface (blacktop), whereby measurements are (also?) to be made at the compacted (verdichtete) transitions.
Peer comment(s):

neutral David Moore (X) : So what are "Aussenanlagen" in road-building? If you can give a convincing answer there, I might agree....

Außenanlagen are grounds or outside facilities (usually surrounding a building). Here, I assume that parts of the Außenanlage (e.g. roads, parking spaces) are surfaced with blacktop.

Height measurement

is your first expression; the second is suffering from a Tippfehler, though, and I wouldn't risk it without confirmation of the actual expression. Übergangsstelle is however "transition" or "joint".
Peer comment(s):

agree Christine Lam : maybe "consolidated measurements on joints" for the second part
