Abstract: A robotic total station (RTS) [or robotic theodolite or theodolite positioning system (TPS)] was used for the first time to measure the deflections of a short-span bridge in response to passing trains. The RTS measurements ...

Abstract: A new geodetic method for accurate determination of nearshore wave characteristics is proposed. This method is based on a robotic total station set on stable position on the coast and aiming at a passive reflector mounted ...
