10 вопросов к ! trigonometric leveling trigonometric levelling consists in computing the difference in elevation of two points on the basis of horizontal distance and the vertical angle between them. it is usually combined with the triangulation work, the vertical angles being measured at the same time as the horizontal angles, a vertical angle is measured to some definite point on the signal the height of which above the station was determined when the signal was erected. the height of the instrument above its own station should also be measured and recorded. in a very precise work angles are measured with a special vertical circle instrument. in a less precise work an ordinary theodolite the vertical arc of which reads to 50 sec. or to 20 sec. may be used but with such instruments only single readings can be made. in this case the best results are obtained by averaging several independent readings half of which are taken with the telescope direct and other half with the telescope inverted. the chief difficulty in obtaining accurate results by trigonometric levelling is the uncertainty in the coefficient of refraction of the air. this varies with locality, temperature and atmospheric pressure and the only way its effect can be eliminated is by taking simultaneous observations between two stations.
