Abstract

A new initialization model for theodolite measuring system (TMS) is introduced in this paper. Errors from levelling and orientating which are main factors affecting the accuracy of TMS in short ranges, are eliminated using the new initialization model. The new method is investigated theoretically first, real measurements are then used to verify its validity and accuracy.
