The instrument calculates the slope distance, horizontal distance, height differ-
ence in accordance with the following formulas:
= D 0 · ( 1 + ppm · 10

ppm
Atmospheric scale correction [mm/km]
AC
Additive constant of the reflector [m]
Description
Corrections for the atmospheric
•
ppm are applied to the slope dis-
tances according to the formu-
las.
Output without corrections for
•
the atmospheric ppm
•
ppm is stored as metadata
Corrections are applied during
