tablet survey

A surveying method using a plane table and alidade to directly plot survey data onto paper in the field.

tacheometry

A surveying method that uses a tacheometer to measure distances and elevations rapidly by observing a graduated staff through an optical instrument.

terrestrial laser scanning

A surveying technology that uses laser pulses to measure distances and create detailed 3D models of land, buildings, and objects from a fixed ground position.

theodolite

A precision optical instrument used in surveying to measure angles and distances for mapping and construction purposes.

Theodolite Angle Measurement

The process of measuring horizontal and vertical angles using a theodolite instrument in surveying and construction applications.

tilt compensation

A surveying technique that corrects for instrument inclination to ensure accurate horizontal and vertical measurements.

time of flight

The measurement of the duration it takes for a signal or pulse to travel from a transmitter to an object and back to a receiver.

Tolerance

The allowable limit of variation in measurements or dimensions from a specified standard value in surveying work.

Topcon Magnet

Topcon Magnet is a sophisticated surveying software platform that integrates field data collection with office-based processing and analysis for construction and land surveying projects.

topo map

A detailed map showing terrain elevation and surface features using contour lines and symbols.

topographic survey

A detailed measurement and mapping of the Earth's surface features including elevation, terrain, and natural/artificial structures.

Total Station

A total station is an electronic surveying instrument that measures angles and distances to determine the positions of points on the Earth's surface.

Total Station Setup

The process of preparing and positioning a total station instrument at a survey point to establish measurements and collect spatial data.

Transverse Mercator

A conformal map projection where the cylinder is rotated 90 degrees to touch the Earth along a meridian rather than the equator.

traverse

A surveying method that establishes a series of connected points and angles to map an area or determine positions.

Triangulation

A surveying method that establishes positions of points by measuring angles and distances within a network of triangles.

tribrach

A three-legged surveying instrument stand used to support and level surveying equipment in the field.

trigonometric leveling

A surveying method that uses trigonometric calculations and measured angles to determine elevation differences between points.

trilateration

A surveying method that determines the position of a point by measuring distances from three or more known reference points.

Trimble Business Center

Trimble Business Center is a geospatial software platform designed for surveying, mapping, and civil engineering professionals to process, manage, and visualize field data collected from GNSS receivers and other surveying instruments.

tripod

A three-legged stand used to support surveying instruments at a fixed height and position for accurate measurements.

Tropospheric Delay

The slowing and bending of electromagnetic signals as they travel through the troposphere, affecting surveying measurements and positioning accuracy.

Tunnel Survey

Specialized surveying methodology for measuring and mapping underground passage dimensions, alignment, and geological conditions during tunnel construction and maintenance.
