- Scope
- This part of ISO 12857 specifies field procedures to be adopted when determining and assessing the accuracy of electro-optical distance meters (EDM instruments) used in surveying for distances up to approx. 2 km. These tests are intended to be operational and not tests for acceptance or performance. The procedures are applicable to the determination of the accuracy of different instruments at one time or of one instrument at different times. The field procedures can be applied everywhere without the need of special ancillary equipment and are designed to minimize atmospheric influences. NOTE — Other International Standards for testing measuring instruments for building construction are available.
