Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a construction site where precise angle and distance measurements are crucial. If a Total Station's reading is off by just 1 mm over a distance of 100 meters, what might be the implications for the construction?

💡 Hint: Consider how small errors compound over longer distances.

Challenge 2 Hard

A surveyor is setting up a Total Station and realizes the optical plummet is misaligned. Explain the steps they should take to correct this before beginning measurements.

💡 Hint: Recall the importance of accurate centering in surveys.
