Modern electronic tacheometers offer the possibility to capture kinematic processes in real time. In case when the kinematic process is observed with only one measurement system, we have no possibility to perform redundant observations that would enable the accuracy estimation of observations and computed values. The Kalman filter represents a method of advanced geodetic analysis and as such adjusts the redundant data in an optimum way. Incorporating a time component directly into a processing of terrestrial kinematic observations demands good knowledge about the procedure of processing kinematic terrestrial observations and the electronic tacheometer capabilities. For this purpose the developed model of Kalman filter for processing kinematic terrestrial observations - discrete Wiener process acceleration model - was tested on reference trajectory in the Geodetic Laboratory of the Technical University Munich.     «
