13. SETTING-OUT MEASUREMENT (Stake Out)
Setting out is the process of measuring a point (set out point) and comparing it to
the required point data from the input data, plans or designs. The difference
between the data input to the instrument (the set-out data) and the measured value
can be displayed by measuring the horizontal angle, distance or coordinates of the
sighted point. The display data is figured by the following simple formula:
Display data=measured data-setting-out data
z
Most Setting out applications are performed in Face 1.
