Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A surveyor measures an angle at ±3” using a Total Station and achieves a distance accuracy of ±(2 mm + 2 ppm) for a 2000 m distance. Calculate the potential error in distance measurement.

💡 Hint: Ensure you apply the ppm correctly for the measurement range.

Question 2

Design a brief plan for ensuring your surveying equipment meets ISO standards before starting a project. Include specific checks and procedures.

💡 Hint: Consider what checks need to be in place consistently.
