Applications for developed non-prism total station which can decides three dimensional position without prism are increasing in variety survey fields. However, distance measurement using non-prism method is lower accurate than prism method because laser strength reflected from materials is varied by angle of reflection and materials. Therefore, distance measured using non-prism total station by angle of reflection and materials is compared with that using pnsm method, and its characters are introduced applying non prism total station in topographic surveying.

The tunnel measurement data such as deficiency quantity, outbreak quantity, inner displacement and crown settlement are very important elements in tunnel sites under construction and obtained mostly by displacement gauge and total station. However, it is difficult and dangerous to install targets or measurement equipments on the points in tunnel construction site and also we need several persons to work in the tunnel. Non-prism total station with remote control system which is developed recently has various efficient functions for tunnel measurement. Therefore, for efficient tunnel measurement, this study suggested one person surveying system which consisted of non-prism total station and notebook PC to control total station remotely, and we evaluated the suggested tunnel measurement system. In this study, the tunnel site under construction was chosen as the test field and tunnel surveying was done by existing surveying method and suggested method separately. As result of the test, we analyzed processing time and accuracy to demonstrate the superiority of suggested one person non-prism surveying system.

With a development of electrical technology in recent, it is possible to measure distance without direct contact to object using laser which launched at instrument and reflect from object. Furthermore, the advent of non prism total station brought the increment of application in many fields including not only road, airport, and harbors but also measurement and monitoring of structural displacement in construction fields. In this study, therefore, to evaluate accuracy of non prism total station, accuracy was analyzed by measuring certain distance which classified by both certain materials and angle of reflection. By this method, the derived values were applied to topographical survey for the efficient applicability. According to a study, result value of non prism total station was satisfBctory regardless of material when the angle of reflection was 90 degrees. RMSE increased when the angle of reflection are gradually increased to acute angle. In result of regression analysis using certain distance which classified by both materials and angles of reflection, there is relationship between distance and angle of reflection, but material has no relevance to the result value. When carrying out general topographical survey, proper application of non prism total station will go far conducting safe and prompt survey at the dangerous site such a road which have lots of traffic flow and rock joint which have high angles of inclination.

To minimize damages caused by landslides due to severe rain falls and storms during the rainy season every year, it is necessary to carry out research to monitor the symptoms of landslide in advance and prevent them. If proper actions ate taken in advance by monitoring the symptoms of landslide, personal and property damages caused by landslides can be prevented or minimized. This study tries to measure the movement of model slopes after causing displacement to each model slope using no prism Total Station and examine the applicability of Total Station by displacement through the analysis of the data.

In this research, we would try to evaluate the applicability in cadastral resurvey surveying by analysing the accuracy of building boundary surveying using the reflective sheet total station surveying. When we analyse it, we refer the reflective sheet which can supplement not only the difficulties of total station surveying and GPS surveying caused by the diversity of the building structure but also the errors of non prism total station caused by material of the object. Each reflected angles $90^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ of RMSE results were analyzed by RMSE between 1.2mm~2.8mm and 2.2mm~4.0mm, 2.5mm~4.4mm for each distance. The result of X RMSE was analyzed to be 0.0043m in a boundary surveying for existing building between prism surveying and reflective sheet surveying, and also Y RMSE was 0.038m. The source of error is estimated that the body of the prism can not be exactly attached to the edge of a building. Therefore, it will be very helpful to use a reflective sheet surveying with a prism in both the limit of collimation and error reductions as a building boundary measurement in cadastral resurvey surveying.

Korea has a large number of landslides due to localized torrential downpours and typhoons in summer, causing great human damage and economic losses. In particular, most roads in the Gangwon area are located in mountains, making them expose to a great risk of landslide. Therefore, it is urgent to prepare countermeasures to prevent these landslides. Necessary for that are various slope investigation and high-tech observation techniques for slope maintenance. Recently there have been slope observation techniques using optical fiber sensors, GPS, CCD cameras, Total Station and satellite images; however, these are not used much due to poor economic feasibility, low accuracy and efficiency. This study evaluated accuracy of displacement extraction of model slopes using terrestrial LiDAR to determine its application to landslide monitoring. As a result, it can measure several mm of minute displacement with high accuracy and help to rapidly obtain geographical features of slope.
