TOTAL STATION: Total station is an electronic or optical instrument used in modern surveying,
construction, engineering and mining project. It is the combination of electronic transit theodolite and
electronic distance meter. It is also integrated with microprocessor, electronic data collector and
storage system.
The instrument is used sloping distance of object to the instrument, horizontal and vertical angles. This
microprocessor unit enable for computation of data collected to further calculate the horizontal
distance, coordinate and reduced level of that point.
