Procedure of Differential Leveling

It is depicted as a vertical distance from the instrument's line of sight to the point being observed. A foresight is typically referred to as a minus (-S) sight due to the fact that the reading for a foresight is calculated by subtracting the height of the instrument from the elevation of the point at which the rod is held.
