It is an object of the present invention to provide a measuring apparatus capable of easily grasping a tracking state of a target and performing an efficient measurement. One aspect of the present invention is a measuring apparatus that emits a light beam toward a target, captures and tracks the target, and measures the three-dimensional coordinates of the target. The measuring apparatus comprises: a light source for emitting light beam; an angle control unit for controlling the emission angle of the light beam emitted from the light source so as to track the moving target; a display unit that provided on a device that is wearable by a measurer; a calculation unit for calculating the three-dimensional coordinates of the target based on the emission angle of the light beam and the light returning from the target; and a display control unit that controls information displayed on the display unit based on the three-dimensional coordinates calculated by the calculation unit. The display control unit performs control to superimposed and display the optical axis graphic image on a position of the optical axis of the light beam.
A measuring apparatus that emits a light beam toward a target, captures and tracks the target, and measures the three-dimensional coordinates of the target, comprising:
