TYPES OF TRAVERSE : Closed Traverse
Starts with one known station and end with the same
station.
The coordinates of the starting station and the end station
must be same.
If there is a difference between starting coordinate and end
coordinate, the error can be identified and the correction
must be done to the each traverse line.
Can be checked and adjusted. 1 coordinates

1. Reconnaissance Survey
Carried out to determine and selection of suitable station points. The
criteria for selection of station points:-
• Use “whole to part “ principle.
• The number of station must be minimize but cover all the survey site.
• The distance between station must be far (more than 30 m) and same as other
traverse line.
• Avoid the sight line to close with earth surface.
• Station must be at the stable surface.
• Try to avoid any disturbance such as tree, building etc.
• The station must be available to observe all the detail surrounding.

2. Station Marking
• The station can be mark when the station criteria had been full fill.
• The common station marking are wood peg and nails.
• The selection of the station marking depend on the site condition.
• The survey works on the road, the suitable marking is nails.
• If the survey works in the forest or construction site, the wood peg is
the best used as station marking.
• For permanent marking, the station can be in concrete.

3. Observation and Measurement
There are two types of observation in traverse:-
• Angle – measure internal angle of the traverse
• Bearing – measure angle from the north in close wise direction
Face Left :
When the vertical circle of the theodolite lies to the left of the observer when
taking a
first reading, the position of the instrument is referred as face left. The first reading
in new
observation.
a First, read back

• Face Right
• When the vertical circle of the theodolite lies to the right of the observer
when taking a reading, the position of the instrument is referred as face
right.
• The observation of the angle (horizontal or vertical) is known as face right
observation.

Adjustment +2” per station.
3. Cross-bearing
The checking was done by observation to the other reference station and
compare the difference

Source of Error
Some sources of error in running a
traverse observation are:
Poor selecting of stations, resulting in bad
sighting conditions caused by alternate sun and
shadow.
• Theodolite is not perpendicular to the station
• Theodolite is not level during observation
• Wrong handling for total station and tripod
• Parallax
• Effect from curvature and refraction
• Error in reading or booking
Mistakes In Traversing
Occupying or sighting on the wrong station
Incorrect orientation
Confusing angles to the right and left
Mistake in recording and reading

Definition Of Total STATION
• Total Station is commonly used for making horizontal angle and
vertical angle.
• Very precision instrument in measuring angle.
• Several types of traversing instruments :
- Transit theodolite
- Micrometer Theodolite
- Optical Theodolite
- Digital Theodolite
- Total Station
Uses of TOTAL STATION
• Measurement of Horizontal Angles.
• Measurement of Horizontal Distance
• Measurement of Vertical Angles
• Measurement of Vertical Distance
• Measurement of Slope Distance
• Measurement of magnetic bearing
• Determining the relative height
• Determining heights and distance very fast (tachometry).
How does total station works
TS Receiver
Known point
Function of total station
• Angular measurement
• TS capable to measure vertical and horizontal angle
• same function as theodolite (measure angle)
• Distance measurement
• TS also capable to measure slope distance.
• TS has an emitter that generates modulated microwave or infrared
signals. This waves or signals will be reflected by a prism reflector. The
modulation pattern is read and interpreted by microprocessor in TS. The
distance determined by emitting and receiving frequencies and
wavelength to the target.
Function of total station
• Data recording and processing
• Micro computer in TS can store the data
• Data recorded can be download to a computer and process using
application software in order to generates a map of survey area
• Using the vertical angle, TS can calculate the horizontal and vertical
distance components of the measured slope distance
• Coordinate determination
• TS determines the coordinates of an unknown point relative to the
known coordinates by establishing a direct line of sight between two
point
• Angle and distance measured; coordinates are calculated using
trigonometry and triangulation.

THEODOLITE
STATION / PEG
PLUMBOB
• Centering and levelling a total station
• Focus on the surveying point or station.
• Centre the surveying point or station in the optical plummet.
• Center the bubble in the circular level.
• Center the bubble in the plate level by using the foot screw.
• Check to see the bubble is in same position in any direction.
• Center the instrument over the surveying point by looking the optical plummet
eyepiece to make sure the point in the actual position and the bubble also in a
plate level.
Setting up Instrument
• Removing Parallax
• Focusing on the reticle.
TS Error
Error in TS &
Error in frequency
reflector constant Cyclic error
(Scale error)
(Zero error)
Cyclic error
This produces errors that are function of the
point in the phase cycles where the
measurement occurs and which consequently
repeat over every wavelength of the measuring
wave.
Total Station Errors
Instrumental and reflector constants
• Also known as zero error. The uncertainties in the position of the
electrical centre of the transmitter and uncertainties in the effective
centre of the reflector
• Signals travel over some distance internally during both transmission and
return.
• The point from which the signal to be transmitted, the electronic centre,
may differ from the geometric centre referred to the location of the
instrument over a station.
• This gives rise to a constant, which must be applied to all distance
measured with that instrument. The constant value are specified by the
manufacturer.

• From one coordinate, another coordinate for all station can be calculate by
using the Adjustment Latitude and Adjustment Value. (Bowditch data)

Sources of Error
Some sources of error in running a traverse are:
Poor selecting of stations, resulting in bad sighting conditions
caused by alternate sun and shadow.
visibility of only the rod's top.
line of sight passing too close to the ground.
lines that are too short.
sighting into the sun.
Errors in measurements of angles and distance.
Failure to measure angles an equal number of times direct and
reverse.
Mistakes In Traversing
Occupying or sighting on the wrong station
Incorrect orientation
Confusing angles to the right and left
Mistake in recording and reading
