Shooting Points with the Total Station

  1. Always get accurate boundary edges and corners when shooting the boundary of a locus.

  2. Always make sure that loci corners and edges are shared when abutting another loci. You won't be shooting additional points, you must find ones if they exist or mark them to be shared in your notes and enter them as duplicate points in excel!

  3. If you can't get the stadia rod to a point under an overhang, shoot the point reflectorless!
