By looking through a telescope and reading the length (number of graduations) of a staff set up vertically at the target point between two parallel lines (stadia hairs) in the field of view, and the altitude angle (vertical angle) at that time, and then applying this value to the formula, the horizontal distance and relative height can be easily calculated. There are also tables based on the formula, making it even easier to calculate the distance and relative height.
