Intro to Total Station

Coordinates for your occupied point:

Procedure:

Set up the total station over the occupied point. Level the

instrument.

Measure the height of the instrument $($point on the ground to

the axis$/$centerline of scope$)$ and the height of the prism pole

$($tip of the pole to the centerline of the prism$).$ Measure the

instrument height with a folding ruler and read the height of the

pole from the scale on the pole.

Sight a point to the north through the total station. Set zero to establish your zero

azimuth.

While the instrument person is sighting north, the rod person takes the prism pole and

holds it level and stable on the measured point.

The instrument person then turns the total station to the rod person. Aim the instrument at

the center of the prism and take a measurement $($MSR$1$ button$).$ Record the resulting

azimuth angle $($HA$),$ zenith angle $($VA$),$ and slope distance $($SD$).$
