Intro to Measuring Elevation

Fellow students! Welcome to our first attempt at holding a field work lab remotely! Using a sight level, Philadelphia Rod and leveling notes, we'll be introducing you to measuring elevation in a landscape.

Nice tutorial. Thanks.
One question remains for me. Do these instruments allow also for (horizontal) distance measurements? It is said that the guy with the Philadelphia rod chooses a good turning point to represent well the slope of the terrain, but what about the distance between instrument and rod? Should you just carry a good old long tape to measure distances? Am I asking too many questions? 😅
Thanks anyway for the video. It answers most of the questions regarding this process.

The benchmark plus the first backsight, I think it is.
