    Abstract: A survey apparatus includes: a measurement unit; an imaging unit; an attitude detecting unit being integrally provided with the imaging unit; and a calculation processing unit. The attitude detecting unit has an inclination sensor which detects horizontality and a relative inclination angle detecting portion which inclines the inclination sensor so that the inclination sensor detects horizontality and which detects an inclination angle of the measurement unit relative to the horizontality in a state where the inclination sensor detects horizontality, and the calculation processing unit executes control to ascertain a rough shape of the measurement object on the basis of the image including the measurement object having been imaged by the imaging unit and generate, on the basis of the rough shape, a scan pattern of the ranging light emitted by the measurement unit.

    Abstract: To provide a method of measuring a state of concrete capable of easily determining or measuring deterioration of the concrete without using a spectroscopy while maintaining the estimation accuracy. The method of the present disclosure emits an irradiation light to the concrete, the irradiation light including a wavelength range of near infrared light related to concrete measurement; and receives a reflection light of the irradiation light P reflected on the concrete. The method determines at least five wavelengths λ1 to λ5, λ6 to λ10, different from each other by PLS regression analysis within a wavelength range of 900 nm to 2500 nm of absorption spectrum, and estimates a degree of neutralization of the concrete caused by calcium hydroxide and a concentration of chloride ion.

    Abstract: A technique for calculating charge in accordance with a state of use of a user in a rental business of total stations is provided. A total station includes a positioning unit, an operation receiving unit, a positioning mode selector, and a counter. The positioning unit performs positioning by using pulsed laser light. The operation receiving unit receives operation of a user. The positioning mode selector selects one of a first positioning mode and a second positioning mode on the basis of operation of the user to the operation receiving unit. In the first positioning mode, positioning is performed at a specific point at a relatively small laser wave number. In the second positioning mode, positioning is performed at a specific point at a relatively large laser wave number. The counter counts up each of the selected times of the first positioning mode and the second positioning mode.
