It is allowable in the NGS specs to run one way between existing marks if the new run meets the section misclosure. All new marks must be double run. ...
Curiously, I am dealing with a situation right now where a client ran levels one way between 4 existing marks (a linear project). He also GPS'd the tw...
Paul, that is so incorrect. I can run a line of levels A to B to C to D to E, etc. If the endpoints are known existing marks, and the line closes, I h...

with an S6 I believe it is accurate to +/- 1 mm. There is a notch on the lower part of the instrument and it does the corrections. We have a rotatable...
Thanks. That sounds like a good converter to have. edit: actually, the only thing in the .jxl file are coordinates, not vectors. I tried expoting from...
