These are fundamentals that used to be passed on from party chief to I-man, I-man to rodman...sadly w/more outfits moving towards 1 man crews that mentoring is unfortunately fading. I'm glad to see someone is still keeping this information alive for future professionals. Bravo!

It's difficult to reproduce the accuracy of simple line of sight observations with robotic equipment and one person. Much agreed, I also appreciate the mentor/learner relationship created through these two person tasks. Difficult if not impossible to replace!

Could you please elaborate the use of prism centre or prism plate when the point on the ground can not be directly sighted due to obstruction. Thanks!

It seems to me that a plumb bob mounted on a thin steel rod with a prism at the top being supported by a tripod system would be much better than a bubble mounted system. It would self plumb the prism if made correctly. It would always be plumb. One might not even notice it the bubble plumb moved out of plumb. What do you think of this idea?

why hang a plumb bob 12 inches? What does that give you? what is the use of the plumb? what are you trying to plumb?
@leansurvey82129 ай бұрын
In this example it is being used to give line at your back sight while also providing a target for distance. It’s plumb over the back sight or foresight point. This would be in cases where you need to get off the ground a small distance but would like to keep your rod as short as possible. For tight tolerance work, a 6.5’ rod that has not been recently calibrated OR is not being held perfectly plumb (which we are just eyeballing anyway) can introduce a small measure inaccuracy into measurement. I’d rather see the prism sitting right on the back sight as in other related videos, but this video is empathizing sticking with a ‘close to the ground’ alternative.
