Surveying for CAD - Experiments in Three-dimensional Techniques Accuracy of total stations is very high, and they have been in use over a period of time long enough to justify confidence in their accuracy and reliability. The largest discrepancy between the measured distance and that obtained from the total station was.005 m., and the average (for 30 measurements which could be compared) was.0015 m.; the standard deviation from the mean of the discrepancies was.0014 m. The third part of the total station is an electronic distance-measuring device which determines the distance between the station and the target at which the instrument is aimed (normally a prismatic reflector). www.csanet.org /inftech/srveybk.html   (7888 words)

Archaeological Field Methods: Archaeology and the Total Station The student assigned to the total station set up will measure and record the laser level before any other measurements (or shots) are taken and before the laser level is turned on. The data that a student collects using the total station is used to map units and profiles. The main purpose of using a total station for archaeological fieldwork is to impose a grid (X-northing,Y-easting,Z-elevation) on the site to locate every artifact and feature in 3-D space and to make topographic maps of the site. www.indiana.edu /~swasey/matrix/afm/afm_station.htm   (2348 words)

SAA Bulletin 14(4): Interface--Total Stations Total stations have one or two LCD (liquid crystal) displays, which range from 1 to 8 lines of 16-40 characters, and some are capable of simple graphical display. Total stations are not for everyone, and they do have some often unforeseen liabilities. Total stations produce the same basic spherical measures as optical survey instruments--horizontal and vertical angles and a radial distance measure. www.saa.org /publications/saabulletin/14-4/SAA16.html   (3265 words)

CSA Newsletter, Aug. '94 - Using a Total Station The total station is mounted on a tripod and leveled before use. The other part of a total station, the electronic distance measuring device or EDM, measures the distance from the instrument to its target. In Pompeii a Topcon total station was used,* and we quickly learned a few features of the equipment. www.csanet.org /newsletter/aug94/nl089407.html   (1859 words)

lab01_5.html The total station allows measurement of this type to be taken by simply targeting someone as they move down the avalanche chute (assuming it's safe to do so). The total station provides a quicker solution to this measurement by allowing a light beam to measure the distance instead of a tape measure. The total station sends an infrared laser that is reflected from a prism and sent back to the total station. www.colorado.edu /geography/courses/geog_2043_f01/lab01_5.html   (1713 words)

Procedure for Collecting Total Station Field Mapping Data With the tripod and total station now centered over the top of the control point, adjust the tripod legs by extending/contracting them, to position the bubble of the circular vial located on the tribrach of the total station to the center. Note: For reference purposes throughout these instructions, the front of the total station is the side facing the object to be measured and the back of the total station is the side with the LCD display panel. Rotate the total station until the back of the unit is aligned with two of the leveling screws located on the bottom plate of the total station (Let's call this POSITION #1). www.bg-map.com /userdata/cub-pr01.html   (1600 words)

Short Instructions for Sokkia SET 4A Total Station Generally small setup errors (1 or 2 mm) are not a problem because they are non-systematic, and the EDM on Total Stations have an error or ±3-5 mm. Point the total station along the long axis and use the instrument control panel to set the direction to zero (see instructions below). From the temperature and pressure you can look up the correction factor in a chart included with the total station, or you can enter the temperature and pressure in the instrument and it will calculate the correction geomechanics.geol.pdx.edu /Courses/TotalStation/Handouts/SETSetup.html   (1481 words)

MicroSurvey Software Inc. :: View topic - South Total Station and FieldGenius2004 I don't really know all that much about the South Total Station and I thought for some reason they were able to emulate a sokkia instrument, but it appears they are similar to Topcon instruments. I used to run Nikon Total Stations that I internally adjusted to emulate the Sokkia SETs which greatly improved the data collector communication speed in the field. We didn't build a driver specific to the South Total Station in FG2004 which is most likely the reason you can not connect to it. www.microsurvey.com /forum/viewtopic.php?p=1707&sid=0c76f9ab8644b149813c7334d3079ee9   (403 words)

A Simplified Total Station System Check to Determine Performance Characteristics - GISCafe Results from both, a three-dimensional free station position and the point accuracies from a three dimensional co-ordinate transformation using minimax technologies, reveal practical information on the total station for the surveyor. An alternate method of checking the total station’s performance (not calibrate) in an easy to operate measurement scenario is described in this paper. In this age of “black box” technologies, when monitoring the state of operation of one’s instruments is difficult, the authors propose this method to help surveyors track the performance and reliability of their instruments. www10.giscafe.com /link/display_detail.php?link_id=11861   (292 words)
