VERIFICATION AND INVESTIGATION OF THEODOLITE DEVICE FUNCTIONS

Abstract

Nowadays, the requirements for the accuracy and precision of geodetic measurement results are increasing while creating cartographic materials and solving engineering and geodetic tasks in various fields of endeavors. Tacheometric surveys are carried out with the use of optical and electronic theodolite stations. Comparatively speaking to electronic instruments, optical theodolites are less expensive and more convenient to operate. The study examines the optical theodolite 2T30's design elements. Under experimental conditions, the precise values of the horizontal angles of the theodolite stroke's sides, directional angles, rhumbs, coordinate increments, and coordinates of the stroke's points were calculated, and a topographic map of a piece of land was created.
