Differences between height of collimation method and rise and fall method

Differences between height of collimation method and rise and fall method

There are two Methods of Levelling:

1.  Height of collimation system

2.  Rise and fall system

Height of collimation system Vs Rise and fall system

1       It   is   rapid   as   it   involves   few  Calculation

It  is  laborious  involving  several calcuation

2       There is no check on the RL of the  intermediate sight

There is a check on the RL of the intermediate points

3       Errors in the intermediate RLs cannot  be detected.       

    Errors in the intermediate RLs can be  detected  as  all  the  points  are correlated

4       There are two checks on the accuracy of RL calculation

There  are  three  checks  on  the accuracy of RL calculation

5       This system is suitable for       longitudinal leveling where number of intermediate sights

    This  system  is  suitable  for  fly there are a leveling   where   there   are   no                         intermediate sights
