In the distance-measuring program
"Averaging", the following values are
displayed:
D
= slope distance as arithmetic
mean of all measurements
s
= standard deviation of a single
measurement
n
= number of measurements
These values are calculated as
follows:
Reduction formulae
= displayed slope distance [m]
D
0
= uncorrected distance [m]
ppm = scale correction [mm/km]
mm = prism constant [mm]
The instrument calculates slope
distance, horizontal distance and
height difference in accordance with
the following formula. Earth curvature
and mean refraction coefficient
(k = 0.13) are taken into account
automatically. The calculated hori-
zontal distance relates to the station
height, not to the reflector height.

The standard deviation S
D
of the
arithmetic mean of the distance can
be calculated as follows:
= Y - A · X · Y
= X + B · Y
