Mini Prism offer a high positional accuracy because it is small size. It has also a  built-in levelling bubble and is supplied with an attachable spike. With this arrangement a point can be measured with very high precision.

As my practice said, I can achieve accuracy of about2-3 mm using mini-prism, while using common prism on a pole it's about10-15 mm. It's important during staking out in construction, for example. So the answer is accuracy.

My experience in the use of a mini prism is very positive. I use it often for very precise staking facilities, among other things, when I need my millimeter precision.

small size so more accuracy you must use miny prisme just in the projects that needs a great accuracy such as pipeline project or industrial project .
