Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to present the results of using three geodetic instruments: the Spectra SP8 GNSS receiver, the Leica FlexLine TS06plus total station, and the Leica BLK360 terrestrial laser scanner, applied to the same project, which involves determining the volume of the highest mound in the 'Suta de Movile' landscape reserve in the Republic of Moldova. The time required for data collection, processing, the number of people involved, and the calculation of the resulting volume are just some of the criteria analyzed to determine the most efficient geodetic instrument for such work. Each geodetic instrument offers its own set of advantages and disadvantages, and the decision on which method to use depends on the specific project requirements, processing principles, accuracy and cost.
