c. Figure 2-10 illustrates the field procedure for
traversing with the theodolite and target. Stations
1 -- 2 -- 3 have been measured; the theodolite at sta-
ward to occupy the tribrach of the tripod at station
3. The target is removed from the tribrach at sta-
tion 1 and is placed in the tribrach at station 2. The
tripod with its tribrach is removed from station 1
and proceeds to station 4, collecting the target
from station 3. At station 4, the target is clamped
into the tribrach and is then centered over the
ground mark. Angles 2 -- 3 -- 4 can now be
measured, and so forth, until the traverse is com-
pleted.
