                                           THEODOLITE             OBJECTIVE: The main objective of theodolite is to measure both the horizontal and vertical angles. *Based on transiting theodolites are of two types:  1.Transit surveying   2.Non-Transit surveying NOTE: Transiting mean rotating,as theodolite can be rotated in horizontal and vertical planes it is called transit theodolite.And which can be used only to measure horizontal angles it is called non-transit theodolite. COMPONENTS PARTS OF THEODOLITE: PARTS OF THEODOLITE 1.HORIZONTAL ANGLE;Measured with horizontal scale of vernier A&B.Horizontal angle measures from (0-360)°.vernier A&B is attached to upper plate A&B.  Mainscale-least count __20',0°,0'{20minutes}           Vernier scale-least count__20",0',0"{20seconds}  2.VERTICAL ANGLE:Measured with vertical scale of vernier C&D.It ranges from(0-90)°  3.UPPER CLAMP AND LOWER CLAMP: When upper clamp screw is
