Reduction Formulas 7.8
Reflector types- The reduction formulas are valid for measurements to all reflector types:
• To prisms
• To reflector tape
• Reflectorless measurements
Slope distance - corrections
Corrections are applied on the instrument display and to all exported formats in the same way.
Formulas
The instrument calculates the slope distance, horizontal distance, height difference in accordance with the following formulas:


Earth curvature (1/R) and mean refraction coefficient (k) are automatically taken into account when calculating the horizontal distance and height difference. The calculated horizontal distance relates to the station height and not to the reflector height.
