For precision I think they should not be that far apart because you should shoot them relatively close. Materials: The materials

A theodolite is a survey testing instrument used for measuring horizontal and vertical angles. A basic theodolite usually consists of a small sized telescope linked with mechanisms to measure horizontal and vertical angles. It has several moving parts and is quite heavy. The theodolite telescope is fixed within perpendicular axes- the vertical axis and the horizontal‚ or trunion‚ axis. The instrument is fixed on a base that can be rotated on a tripod by a leveling system. The angle to the desired
