How far can a level, theodolite and total station see?

The measuring range of the level is 50 meters to 200 meters.

The total station can reach as far as10000m with prism and1500m without prism.

Theodolite is generally1000 m.

Level meter: it can measure the height difference, and the dial can be roughly oriented.

Theodolite: it can measure the angle, press the line and set the intersection in front.

Total station: It is a theodolite with ranging head, which can measure triangle elevation, coordinates, angles, etc.

Measurement formulas of level, theodolite and total station:

Measurement formula of level: (online-offline) Level blackness × 100= sight distance, in meters, front sight distance+rear sight distance = station distance. According to the requirements of Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4 leveling, the sight distance difference before and after can't exceed a certain value.

The measuring formula of theodolite: increment △X =cosa (azimuth) × horizontal distance. When calculating, it should be noted that the quadrant of azimuth is in the quadrant of increment table, and the positive and negative signs of increment are determined in the quadrant. △y increment =sina (azimuth) × horizontal distance. When calculating, it should be noted that the quadrant of azimuth is in the quadrant of increment table, and the positive and negative signs of increment are determined in the quadrant.

Total station calculation formula: the formula is Xn=X+COSA*L, yn = y+Sina * l.

Total station has the function of level, but it can't completely replace level. The survey specification stipulates that trigonometric leveling can only replace Grade III and IV.
