INTRODUCTION
So far we have been measuring horizontal angles by
using a Compass with respect to meridian, which is less
accurate and also it is not possible to measure vertical
angles with a Compass.
So when the objects are at a considerable distance or
situated at a considerable elevation or depression ,it
becomes necessary to measure horizontal and vertical
angles more precisely. So these measurements are
taken by an instrument known as a theodolite.
THEODOLITE SURVEYING
LEVELLING
5. Face Right - If the vertical circle of the instrument is on the
right side of the observer while taking a reading ,the position is
called the face right
6. Changing Face - It is the operation of bringing the vertical
circle to the right of the observer ,if originally it is to the left ,
and vice – versa.
7.Line of Collimation - It is also known as the line of sight .It is
an imaginary line joining the intersection of the cross- hairs of
the diaphragm to the optical centre of the object- glass and its
continuation.
8. Axis of the telescope It is also known an imaginary line
joining the optical centre of the object- glass to the centre of
eye piece.

VERTICAL ANGLE
A
To Measure the Vertical Angle of an object A at a station O:
(i) Set up the theodolite at station point O and level it
accurately with reference to the altitude bubble.
(ii) Set the zero of vertical vernier exactly to the zero of the
vertical circle clamp and tangent screw.
(iii) Bring the bubble of the altitude level in the central position
by using clip screw. The line of sight is thus made horizontal
and vernier still reads zero.
(iv) Loosen the vertical circle clamp screw and direct the
telescope towards the object A and sight it exactly by using
the vertical circle tangent screw.
(v) Read both verniers on the vertical circle, The mean of
the two vernier readings gives the value of the required
angle.
(vi) Change the face of the instrument and repeat the
process. The mean of of the two vernier readings gives the
second value of the required angle.
(vii) The average of the two values of the angles thus
obtained, is the required value of the angle free from
instrumental errors.
