Abstract EN
The digital level (SOKKIA SDL-30) and total station (SOKKIA CX-105) are highlighted as examples of digital surveying instruments.
In this study, it is clarified how some surrounding factors can affect their efficiency such as vibration, sunlight, and its direction, temperature, and battery capacity.
Through vibration testing as one of these factors ,both the digital level and the total station using the reflector-less were exposed to vibration up to 25 KHZ/Sec, the average and the standard deviations elevation error for the digital level increased by 2 times at 80 m distance , and the average and the standard deviations positioning error increased 3 times for the total station using the reflector-less total at 80 m distance between the instrument and bar code.
64.3% and 51.25% are the increasing ratios in average error for digital level and total station with reflector-less prism by testing the effect of sunlight and its position.
The increase in temperature leads to an increase in the average error with 150 % and 66.6% for digital level and reflectorless total station.
Finally, the lack of battery efficiency led to a shortage of accuracy of the Surveying Instruments.
