When carrying out geodetic work inside production shops or on a construction site, it is necessary to significantly change the focusing of the telescope. Refocusing the telescope can lead to a shift in the sighting axis, and, accordingly, to a decrease in the accuracy of angular measurements. The article presents the results of laboratory studies to determine the horizontal error of collimation and vertical index error of the Leica total station for distances from 2 to 84 m. Therefore, after checking the collimation and vertical index error and automatically taking into account their influence, it is allowed performing geodetic measurements at one position of the vertical circle. In particular, this makes it possible to speed up the execution of fan-shaped trigonometric leveling with short sights, which is performed when observing the settlements of the foundations of industrial buildings and structures.

The Real

Classical methods for determining refraction are based on Newton’s formulae for a statically stable atmosphere. However, they do not provide the required measurement accuracy due to random changes in refraction, caused by the influence of atmospheric turbulence. The aim of this work is to study the dynamic method for determining refraction in a turbulent atmosphere. The measurements were performed with a Trimble S9 total station. It was found out, that within a few seconds the angle of vertical refraction can change by dozens of arc seconds. To improve the accuracy of the results, it is necessary to determine the refraction instantly for a specific moment of observation and for a particular path, otherwise the obtained corrections will not correspond to the real angle of refraction. The introduction of a dynamic method for determining refraction requires more extensive experimental studies under various observation conditions. In the case of confirmation of the high accuracy of the dynamic method for determining the fraction, significant prospects open up for taking refraction into account and developing new more effective measuring instruments in a turbulent atmosphere.

Based on the principle of trigonometric elevation measurement and the law of error propagation, the trigonometric elevation formula is derived in this paper. The factors that cause the trigonometric measurement error are analyzed accurately. It is considered that the use of a high-precision total station for the trigonometric elevation measurement under opposite conditions can reach the second-order level measurement accuracy.

This paper aims to highlight the behavior in time monitoring of a hydrotechnical construction by establishing the displacements compared to the base tranche and the previous tranche, processing these measurements and establishing conclusions on the behavior of the analyzed construction. The main purpose of this paper is to study if there are any displacements of the studied hydrotechnical construction between different measurements tranches. Field measurements were performed between September - December 2016, after which the data was processed at the office with specially developed programs for this purpose. For the micro-triangulation stage, respectively for measuring the directions and distances, were used Leica TS02 Plus R500 total stations. The measurement accuracy of this total station is 1” for directional determination and 1.5mm + 2ppm for distances. Tracking the behavior in time of hydrotechnical constructions are of great importance, because it can prevent many calamities like breaking the dam, floods etc.

In this paper, by analyzing the limitations of the traditional trigonometric elevation method, and on the basis of establishing a mathematical model of trigonometric elevation, a convenient and fast trigonometric elevation method without instrument height and prism height is improved, and the operation steps of the method are introduced in detail. The accuracy analysis was evaluated and the method was applied to actual engineering. The results show that under the premise of ensuring the measurement accuracy, this method not only reduces the range of measurement error sources, but also improves the measurement efficiency.

Interest in the influence of the incidence angle of a laser beam to distance measurements can be seen in many areas of science and technology: geodesy, glaciology, archaeology, machine automation, and others. This paper presents results of measurements of the effect of the incidence angle of a laser beam to distance measurements to the surfaces of different colour and roughness by Topcon's electro-optical total station with an accuracy of 3 mm. Measurement method and the method of elimination of test stand errors are presented. The results of measurements have been analysed and the influence of selected factors (surface colour and roughness, lack of instrument rectification) on the distance measurement have been discussed.

Abstract This paper is concerned with the study of new turbulent method technique for the determining of vertical refraction when total stations are used. Required measurement accuracy of vertical refraction by conventional methods is extremely difficult due to rapid random changes in the angle of refraction. Geodetic observations are recommended to performing only during periods of indifferent temperature stratification, while the refraction is close to zero and practically unvaried. However, this period is extremely short and its boundaries are not defined, so the inefficiency of all known methods for determining refraction must be attention. The complete liberation of geodetic observations from the influence of turbulent and fluctuation processes in the atmosphere is possible only by directly measuring the angle of refraction at the time of observation. The creation of electronic total stations with automatic guidance to the target allows to successfully solving the problem of determining refraction by a turbulent method. The aim of this work is to study the new method for determining refraction in a turbulent atmosphere. The measurements are performed with a Trimble total station. The obtained results confirm that the accuracy for determining refraction is ~2″, which almost corresponds to the instrumental accuracy of the device used.
