A rugged dependable total station

As new total station surveying equipment of SatLab, the SLT Series is lighter and smaller than the previous ones. With a reflectorless EDM, and the Satcont onboard software, it's designed to last for the total station surveying. 

 

Functions of the total station 

Angles and distances are measured from the entire station to points under survey, and therefore the coordinates (X, Y, and Z or northing, easting and elevation) of surveyed points relative to the entire station position are calculated using trigonometry and triangulation.

 

Distance measurement

Since the 1980s, electronic distance measurement (EDM) devices have allowed surveyors to measure distances more accurately and more efficiently than they can with tapes. To measure the horizontal distance between two points, one surveyor uses an EDM instrument to shoot an energy wave toward a reflector held by the second surveyor. The modulation pattern in the returning signal is read and interpreted by the computer in the total station. The distance is determined by emitting and receiving multiple frequencies, and determining the integer number of wavelengths to the target for each frequency. Most total stations use purpose-built glass prism (surveying) reflectors for the EDM signal.
