46 Remote Height
Remote Height is used to determine the elevation of inaccessible
points, e.g. on cables or building facades.
First, the distance to a base point situated vertically below (or
above) the remote height point must be measured. Then aim to the
remote height point.
The coordinates of the remote point are calculated from the
distance measured to the base point and from the angles
measured to the remote point.
Basic Procedure
Before starting Remote Height:
The station must be set up and oriented.
Known:
- Distance to the base point
- Hz and V to the remote point
