Although the problem is reduced with a beam that uses a
smaller measuring area, the error can not be completely
eliminated. The most accurate solution to measure to tight
corners and eliminates errors caused by beam divergence, is
to use an offset measurement method such as that used in
the field application software:
1. Measure two points on the face of the building.
2. Aim the instrument at the corner to calculate and store the
position of the third point, based on the two measured
points and the horizontal and vertical angle to the third
point.
With offset measurements, you can accurately measure
difficult locations with DR instruments, and eliminate beam
divergence errors. For more information, refer to the field
application software documentation.
