Summary Several random surface topographies were analyzed. They were measured by optical (Talysurf CCI Lite) method. They represent one‐ and two‐process anisotropic and isotropic surfaces. These surfaces were rotated of ±1° and ±2° by two methods: on the plane table (before measurement) and virtually (after measurement) using the software TalyMap Gold. After each measurement or surface rotation, each surface was levelled. Then, the forms were removed using polynomial of the 3rd degree. Areal surface topography parameters from standard ISO 25178 were calculated. The relative deviations of parameters were determined. The tendency of surface topography changes characteristic to various surface types were analyzed. It was found that change in orientation to the measurement direction of both isotropic and anisotropic surfaces could be substantial source of the measurement uncertainty. Functional parameter Smr and also feature parameters Sda, Sha, Sdv, Shv, and Spd are the mostly sensitive on measurement orientation. Statistical amplitude parameters Sa and Sq are more stable than parameters describing maximum surface height, like Sz, Sp, and Sv. The effect of surface orientation to measurement direction on values of functional parameters from V group was small. It was shown that changes of Sdq, Sdr, and Spc parameters describing hybrid properties due to surface rotation before measurement were smaller than those caused by change in surface orientation after measurement.
