The advantages of total station over traditional theodolites include:
1. Greater accuracy due to the digital electronics and laser optics used in total stations.
See less2. Automatic data processing capabilities, which allow for faster data entry and reduction.
3. Capability to take distance readings over greater distances with greater accuracy (up to 1.5 miles).
4. Ability to connect to a computer or data collector to store and manipulate data electronically.
5. Capability to measure vertical and horizontal angles simultaneously.
6. Ability to measure slope distances in addition to level distances.
7. Built-in memory storage for storing multiple measurements.
8. Ability to measure area, volume and coordinate data.
