Surveying instrument and surveying compensation method

摘要

A surveying instrument comprises rotating units (3) and (4) operated rotatably, supporting units (6) and (3) to support the rotating units, a reflection mirror portion provided on one of the supporting unit or the rotating unit, tilt sensors (15) and (24) arranged on the other of the supporting unit and the rotating unit and for projecting a detecting light (36) and for detecting a relative tilting of reflection surface of said reflection mirror portion with respect to said supporting unit by receiving said detecting light reflected by the reflection mirror portion, and a control unit (26) for calculating an unsteadiness of rotation of the rotating unit based on a signal from the tilt sensor.
