parallax-1 The apparent displacement of the position of any point with respect to a reference point or system, caused by a shift in the station of observation.
To measure large distances, such as the distance of a planet or a star from Earth, astronomers use the principle of parallax. Here, the term parallax is the semi-angle of inclination between two sight-lines to the star, as observed when Earth is on opposite sides of the Sun in its orbit.
Parallax is the amount a point moves between two photos. Figure F-3 shows two points at different elevations appearing on two successive photos. The parallax for each point can be compared by overlaying the photos, Figure F-4. From Figures F-3 and F-4 it is apparent that parallax is: a measurable quantity.

In this method, at first Height of the instrument is calculated for each set of the instrument by adding backsight (BS) to the elevation of the benchmark. The height of the instrument is nothing but the reduced level of the top of the levelling machine.
Define parallax. [2012] Ans: The apparent movement of image relative to the cross hair is known as parallax. This occurs due to imperfect focusing.
17 lis 2015 · Parallax is a method of using two points of observation to measure the distance to an object by observing how it appears to move against a background. One way to understand parallax is to look at a nearby object and note its position against a wall.
