Hello all,

I recently purchased a Topcon GTS302 total station The price was good and came with almost everything I need to do my work.  My primary usage will be for laying out house foundation corners on new construction.  

A couple decades ago I used a similar station for traffic accident scene diagraming  but have forgotten about everything related to using the instruments.  

I live near Rapid City, SD and am looking for anyone in the area that would be willing to spend a few hours with me to teach me the basics of using the instrument and how to do layouts etc.  

The unit does not have a data collector of any kind so for now it will be 100% paper and notes!

I am willing to pay someone if they are willing to help me learn some of the basics.  

Looking forward to expanding the tools in my tool bag. 

Respectfully,

 

Heath

I have a GTS 303, probably fairly similar. A little too far away to meet in person, but might have some advice.

Thanks!   I will keep that in mind.   Gotta play with it and see what I can figure out.
