@learner?ÿ Topcon MAGNET Field has mission planning software, which we never use. How about a website liketo plan around increased solar activity?
@rover83?ÿ That sounds freakin' outstanding! Unfortunately, we don't have StarNET. We use Carlson Survey inside AutoCAD Civil 3D and Topcon MAGNET To...
Are you trying to say that a poor angle set will be more apparent?
We did that yesterday.
@shawn-billings?ÿ Resection is one of the potential alternatives I was thinking about before posting this topic. I assume you typically use 2-point r...
@bill93?ÿ You are absolutely correct! I always keep this kind of thing in mind when shooting points under 200', especially when sighting a prism pole...
@jim-frame?ÿ I think you misunderstood my issue. The side shot to the property corner isn't the issue; it's that the side shot is from a side shot. M...
@lukenz?ÿ Thanks for the excellent explanation!
Topcon ES 105 5" total station. I would rather have a 3" instrument. Specifically, a Leica 3" instrument. The office has a 5" or better tolerance on d...
@john-nolton?ÿ Thanks for clarifying the math! In the past I remember situations where the FSD angle was greater than 180?ø, and some additional math...
Where do you get the 30.5" from in the?ÿmean D&R column? Also, I remember doing some additional math if the direct angle to the foresight was >...
@nate-the-surveyor?ÿ Hopefully the many answers won't be too far behind them!
@lukenz?ÿ I'm curious about the wisdom of Topcon for including the geodetic distance in their point-to-point inverse output. How is that data useful ...
Is geodetic distance synonymous with grid distance? Baselined as in checked on a calibration range? In 1994 we used a Topcon GTS-4A for an FDOT proj...
We had good results so far on our current project with total station distances vs. GPS -derived distances. Points 1 to 2 and 2 to 3 were both within a...
Can I dare say that it was likely a female reporter whose frame of reference reflects where she spends a lot of her time?
I first heard this word used in the movie?ÿThe Black Shield of Falworth, starring Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh.
Those are my words. They just want something official like an NGS point.
