Tacheometry: Measurement Techniques Explained

Tacheometry is a distance measurement method using optical equipment on a theodolite. There are several tacheometry systems such as the parallax angle, tangential, stadia, and optical wedge that utilize the principle of light refraction to accelerate the measurement of distance and height.

Meaning: Accelerating Measurement
Tacheometry is a method of measuring distance using
The Optical Completeness Present in the THEODOLITE Device

Tacheometric System :
Paralactic Angle Position of the Sign Tacheometry System
Change Vertical Tangential
Stay Vertical Stadium
Change Horizontal Substance Bar
Stay Horizontal Optical Wedge
(Baji Optis)

Paralactic Angle:
The angle measured from the Measuring Instrument towards the Short Baseline
formed on a Measurement Sign
This method is rarely used because it is less precise, but easy.
understood in the implementation of measurement.

Measurement Procedure:
The theodolite is set up at point A and record the instrument height (i)

The telescope is adjusted so that the vertical angle reads:


00° 00’ 00”/ 00g00cg00ccg
Note the reading of the sign placed vertically at point B(C)

The vertical circle locking screw is loosened and aims at the sign.

The substance bar consists of 2 arms that
made of a metal alloy that
connected with a hinge/joint,
until it can be folded.
This tool is equipped with a sighting point at
the end that is 2m away, and in
in the middle. In addition, it is also equipped with
level and sighting telescope. This tool
mounted on top of a tripod.
In triangle Δ ABC, CB = ½ the length of the bar = b/2 = 1 m

Angle ABC = 90 and <CAB = θ/2


Tan θ/2 = CB/AB
AB = CB / Tan(θ/2) = 1 / Tan(θ/2) = Cot(θ/2)

This tool is a wedge-shaped glass prism.
mounted in front of the objective lens, covering 1/3 of the lens area

Rays that do not pass through the prism travel
as usual and the light passing through the prism
will be refracted.
The prism is made in such a way that the shift b
the same as 1/100 of distance D, so if there are 2 objects
100 meters away from the prism and adjacent to it
at a distance of 1 meter, from the telescope the object
looks crowded.
Other equipment designed for this purpose is
special measuring markers.
