Discuss what programs to use when – personal preference Set out points of known co-ordinates using the stake out function Set out points in relation to a given line using the reference line function- Set out points at a given chainage and offset along a radius, e.g. road centrelines using the reference arc function

Day 1 (6 hour  training + 1 hour break) Introduction to the course What’s in the box Set up the total station over a point Carry out the relevant calibration checks (horizontal and vertical collimation error, trunnion axis, prism constant, optical/laser plummet, diaphragm orientation) List the sources of error when using a total station Set […]
