Zusammenfassung:A target (100) for use in surveying applications is provided. The target comprises a plurality of light sources (106) arranged around a longitudinal axis (A) of a base element (108) of the target. The plurality of light sources is configured to emit light radially. The target further comprises a control unit (214). The control unit is configured to receive, from a surveying instrument (120) aimed towards the target, an input indicative of a distance (d) between the target and the surveying instrument. The control unit is further configured to control an intensity of the light (440a, 440b) emitted by the plurality of light sources based on the input indicative of the distance (d1, d2) between the target and the surveying instrument.
