Satellite stations are also known as eccentric stations. The satellite station is established in triangulation surveying when it is not possible to set the instrument on the station, building roofs, terrace or towers then a false point is assumed with the reference of that structure which is known as satellite station. This includes in the process of securing the well conditioned triangle of the objects chosen as satellite stations.
A satellite station in surveying is a GPS receiver that is used to record the exact three-dimensional coordinates of a location on the earth’s surface. The use of a satellite station, either a hand-held or base unit, allows surveyors to accurately measure distances and angles, calculate areas, and collectively create detailed maps of the land.
