BASICS OF SURVEYING
• Surveying is the most important, oldest practice carried out, which includes, taking
of measurements on, below or above the surface of the ground and to plan the
course of further actions, based on the findings of the survey.
• The linear measurements and angular measurements are measured with the aid of
few instruments, viz., tape, chain, staff, dumpy level, theodolite, etc
• All the readings are noted in field books or survey records and kept as a hard copy
and the calculations are done later in office
BASIC OF SURVEYING
• With such surveying instruments, survey work will be slow and tedious.
INVENTION OF MODERN SURVEYING
• With these inventions, modern surveying practices came into existence.
• Hence with modern surveying instruments, survey work will be precise, faster and
less tedious.
• The data collected in microprocessor is directly transferred and stored in the
computer as a softcopy.
• Hence modern surveying instruments are becoming more popular and they are
gradually replacing old surveying instruments such as compass and Dumpy level.

FUNCTIONS OF TOTAL STATION
• Coordinates determination:
Total station determines the coordinates of an unknown point relative
to the known coordinate by establishing a direct line of sight between the two
points. Angles and distances are measured from the total station to points under
survey and the coordinates of surveyed points relative to the total station position
are calculated using trigonometry and triangulation. Some total stations have Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), which does not require direct line of sight to
determine coordinates.
• Distance measurement:
A total station has a small solid state emitter within the instrument’s
optical path. They generate modulated microwave or infrared signals that are
reflected by a prism reflector or the object under survey. The modulation pattern in
the returning signal is read and interpreted by the computer in the total station. The
distance is thus determined by emitting and receiving multiple frequencies and
determining the integer number of wavelength, to the target, for each frequency.
• Angular measurement:
Most of the modern total stations have digital bar-codes on rotating
glass cylinder that are installed within the instrument. Angle measurements is done
through electro-optical scanning of these digital barcodes.
• Data processing:
The data recorded by the instrument may be downloaded from the
theodolite to a computer and the application software in turn generates a map of the
survey area. Many advanced models of total station have built-in microprocessor to
record and compute distances, horizontal and vertical angles.
ADVANTAGES OF TOTAL STATION
• A download cable and software on a PC to capture and process the captured digital
data to produce contour and detail maps.
CONCLUSION
• Total station makes the measurements more accurate.
• Total station records the data on its inbuilt data recorder and generates maps within a
fraction of time.
• Hence time consuming will be less and Total station made survey work easy.
