Geodimeter

A Geodimeter is a device used in surveying to measure distances accurately. It works by sending a laser or electronic signal from the instrument to a reflector placed at the target point. The device then calculates the distance based on the time it takes for the signal to travel back. This allows surveyors to determine precise positions of points on the Earth's surface, which is essential for mapping, construction, and land development. The Geodimeter improves measurement speed and accuracy compared to traditional methods, making it a vital tool in modern surveying practices.
