    Horizontal angle (HA) A horizontal angle is the difference between two readings from the ho- rizontal circle. However, a reading from one of the circles is also often described as an angle. Slope distance (SD) Distance from the center of the telescope to the point at which the laser beam strikes the target surface Horizontal distance (HD) The horizontal distance derived from the measured slope distance.
