An apparatus for measuring a position of a probe for an inclinometer, the apparatus comprising:
- a probe connection unit connected to a probe on which a displacement measurement sensor for measuring a displacement of the ground is installed;
- a cable connection unit connected to a cable for moving the probe in an inclinometer;
- a power supply unit supplying power to the probe;
- a storage unit for storing a measurement value measured by the displacement measurement sensor;
- a rotating body rotating and moving while adjoining an inner surface of the inclinometer tube;
- a rotation amount measurement unit measuring an amount of revolutions of the rotating body;
- and
- a probe position calculation unit calculating a position of the probe by using information on the amount of the revolutions of the rotating body,
- wherein the rotation amount measurement unit comprises:
- a magnetic field generator formed in a partial region of the rotating body to generate a magnetic field while rotating according to the revolutions of the rotating body;
- and
- a rotational number calculation unit measuring the magnetic field to calculate the number of revolutions of the rotating body.
