. In the article, the authors had done a brief analysis of existing modern, traditional methods and tools that allow to determine the planned coordinates of geodetic signs, located on the last tier of super-high engineering structures, paid special attention to the disadvantages and concluded that it’s necessary to develop a method and device for determining the geodetic coordinates on ultra-high engineering structures with high accuracy to provide engineering and geodetic works during the construction and operation of high-rise structures. In the article, the authors propose their method and device for determining the planar coordinates of the upper geodetic sign of the line of vertical design on ultra-high engineering structures with high accuracy, which is based on the method of the straight linear resection by the light distance meter. The result of the proposed method is the enhancing of the accuracy of engineering and geodetic works during the construction and control of geometric parameters of high-rise structures. This method of distance measurements allows getting the enhancing of the accuracy of the engineering and geodetic measurements by fixing the moment of occurrence of the double frequency with root mean square error (RMSE) above 0.5 mm, thus eliminating the need to measure the phase difference between direct and reflected pulses. A particular advantage of the proposed method is that the accuracy of the measurements depends on the comparison of the radiated f and double fg frequencies, which makes the measurement precision.
