Surveying Instrumentation and construction is concerned with staking out markers and reference points on the construction site that tells the contractors where to begin building the foundation of the new structure.
This usually relies on a coordinate system selected specifically for the project.
Evidence suggests that surveying instruments and construction is visible throughout history, hence, is one of the oldest disciplines on earth. As such disciplines upgrade and modernise courtesy the rapidly evolving technology, the geometric measuring methods that were used by our predecessors, are being used even today.
The process involves surveying the sight before the construction begins. Surveying Instrumentation like theodolites, laser rangefinders, survey total stations, and GPS are used by the surveyor to mark areas with pegs and string to complete construction surveys.

Missing Line & Slope
Applications: To measure span lengths, vegetation clearances, remote slopes and changes in elevation.
Solutions: Follow the step-by-step procedure for shooting in any two remote points, and T&D Pro will instantly calculate the azimuth, inclination and slope distance, as well as measure the horizontal and vertical distance between those two points.
Conductor Clearance
Applications: To determine if a tree is in danger of hitting a conductor if it were to fall.
Solutions: Position yourself either under the conductor or at the tree in question. Measure the tree height and then shoot to the conductor. T&D Pro provides the line clearance value. If it is negative (-), mark the tree to be cut.
Sag Profile
Applications: To verify the span, sag and tension of a conductor.
Solutions: Take multiple shots along the conductor, including both attachment points. In addition, you can map in the ground beneath the span and any other obstructions in the way. T&D Pro instantly calculates the span, sag and tension values for the conductor. It even calculates the height and location of the lowest point.
Conductor Height
Applications: To calculate a conductor’s height aboveground or some other point of reference.
Solutions: Using any of the four measuring methods will always yield an accurate value. Shoot at a point along the conductor and then to a spot below it. T&D Pro instantly displays the height of the wire.
Tie Line Bi-Section
Applications: To locate the direction in which to anchor the guy wire at a bend point in a new line.
Solutions: To determine the direction necessary to anchor the guy wire at a bend point in a new line, occupy the bend point and measure azimuths along both routes. T&D Pro solves for the needed direction.
Store Raw Data
Applications: Logging miscellaneous distance, angles, heights, etc.
Solutions: You can log miscellaneous distances, angles, heights and other data simply by shooting to an object and sending the data string to T&D Pro. Notations can be stored along with the data.
MapSmart field data collection software is designed for anyone who needs to quickly and accurately map, measure, or position anything. It’s a simple yet powerful program that easily integrates with LTI laser devices and mapping accessories to turn a laser into a complete total station solution.
This program was specifically designed to be easy to operate so more time can be spent mapping and collecting data rather than training. Choose to include GPS origin and offset coordinates with laser-based mapping or not. If you do, you only need to capture one perfect coordinate – all the others are mathematically calculated based on that position. You can also choose to map using only GPS or seamlessly move between laser mapping and GPS mapping in one project.

Achieve Quick & Safe Volume Measurements
Keeping track of inventories has never been easier. Use MapSmart to find out the volume of any size stockpile (including stockpiles in bins of various shapes) OR use it to find out how much material you need to fill a hole right in the field. Use your Android device to add a photo of the stockpile to any measurement and include one in a PDF report (with or without XYZ coordinates).
MapSmart Field Calculation Screen Shots
Get Instant Field Calculations
MapSmart can make several calculations right in the field that can be saved for later or can even eliminate the need for post-processing:
To ease the process of decrypting field measurement at the end of the day, MapSmart provides many options for organizing and classifying data points. First, every measurement can have a unique note that is entered at the time OR selected from a user-defined list. Second, categories (Example: Status or Tree Species) and subcategories (Example: Good, Fair, Poor or Ponderosa Pine, Aspen, Blue Spruce) can be built and assigned to a data point. Third, a height (Example: Attachment Point on a utility pole) or missing line (Example: Distance from pole to danger tree) measurement may be applied to a data point with an additional note for each. Include photos taken with the Android device or the TruPoint 300.Measuring with MapSmart and the TruPoint 300
Map Points, Lines, Curves, & Areas
Keep the survey simple and map in just points or connect the points with a line, spline curve, or area feature as you go.
Review & Edit Points & Features
If at any time a measurement is in question, easily review the coordinates and notes associated with each collected data point with the Point Detail feature. Edit any points in the field, review raw measurements or notes for each point, and view all the measurement values in a tabular format.

The MapStar TruAngle, precisely calculates a turned horizontal angle that can be referenced to any desired point or direction. When integrated with an LTI laser, you can capture X, Y and Z coordinates for complete 3D mapping and surface modeling. With a smaller and lighter weight design, a more simplistic user interface and a price point that’s nearly half of the MSAE, the TruAngle angle encoder is an attractive alternative mapping accessory.
When mounted on a tripod, the TruAngle angle encoder is capable of producing +/- 0.05 degrees in angular accuracy. There is a built-in mechanical bubble to assist with leveling it correctly and a friction lock mechanism that helps you take more precise measurements. All the angular values can be clearly seen, day or night, with the easy to read numbers and backlit LCD.
Since the user interface has been simplified, anyone can take the lead in capturing accurate field data. It’s as simple as leveling the device, aiming towards a point or direction and setting the initial angle value to zero. All the data collected thereafter is simply referenced from that initial predetermined direction. The laser data goes through the TruAngle angle encoder and then automatically outputs your 3D coordinates directly into a data collector. The serial output format is compatible with most GIS field data collection software and GPS/GNNS products.
This system is a great alternative to using a total station because you won’t need to invest a lot of time with extensive training or make a huge upfront financial investment. Our modular design also allows you to use the laser standalone so you can become more mobile when taking just distance and height measurements.
If you need to map within urban environments or nearby heavy equipment or buildings, the TruAngle angle encoder is the perfect tool because it is unaffected by local magnetic interference. You never have to worry about your angular accuracy being compromised in these areas. Get the basic angular values you need at the price point that will pay for itself in time savings alone.
How the MapStar TruAngle Measures Up:
Offers a low price point without compromising needed functionality
Operates easily with a simple 2 button interface to decrease field time and aggravation
Provides industry leading angular accuracy to ensure quality maps every time
Includes a mechanical bubble so you can set up quickly and obtain the best accuracy
Integrates seamlessly with all LTI laser rangefinders

Cross-Sectional Survey By using the MLM (Missing Line Measurement) program, the height difference between points can be calculated. Also, you can save time on reflectorless mode to measure a number of points of variation in a large area.
Stake Out The Guide Light function will navigate the prism operator to move to the stake out line quickly so that stake out operation can be done effectively.
Elevation Stake Staking out with 3D coordinates, eliminates the need to set up TS on the straight line for all elevation stakes.
Boundary and Cadastral Survey By using the Area function, you can calculate the area easily. Also, you can determine the center point of the column such as electric pole, which cannot be directly measured, by using offset calculation.
Coordinate Measurement With coordinate measurement, you can manage 3D coordinate data so that various calculations such as Road, Layout and more can be determined. 3D coordinate data management can improve the productivity drastically.
Topographic Survey The trigger key, or measuring distance key, helps you perform topography quickly while continuously viewing through the telescope. Also, the long distance measuring range reduces the number of the instrument changes for more efficient working time.

The Sokkia SDL1X Digital Level is designed to achieve the highest precision and productivity in leveling and height measurement applications. From Intelligent Auto Focus to wireless operation, a number of innovative technologies are implemented for unmatched reliability while eliminating error factors during measurement.
Features :High-SpeedMeasurement : Aim, focus and press a key. Height and distance asre simultaneously measured in 2.5 seconds, 20% faster than ordinary digital levels.
Consistent Performance : ADL30/SDL50 provides superior measurement capability under variety of environment conditions. Even when the staff surface is partially shaded, or brightness at staff surface is as low as 20 lux*, SDL30/SDL50 consistently provides reliable measurement results without downtime.*20 lux is the minimum brightness required to recognize human face.
Automatic Recognition of Inverted Staff : SDL30/SDL50 automatically recognizes directions of RAB-Code staffs and displays the results with a minus sign (-) when the staff is inverted.
Wave-and-Read Technology : Innovative “Wave-and-Read” technology provides an additional survey style option. SDL30/SDL50 tracks the RAB-Code staff waved back and forth to read the correct height. The least value of the staff readings is automatically detected.
