43 Survey - Auto Points

43.1 Overview

Description • Auto points is used to automatically measure and store points at a specific
rate. Additionally, individual auto points can be stored outside the defined
rate. Auto points logged between starting and stopping logging of auto points
form one chain. A new chain is formed each time logging of auto points is
started.
• Auto points can be collected in the Survey application program. An Auto page
is visible when logging of auto points is active.
• Up to two offset points related to one auto point can be logged. The offset
points can be both to the left or right and they can be coded independently of
each other and of the auto points. Refer to "43.4 Offset Points of Auto Points".

Coding of auto Coding of auto points is similar to coding of measured points. Refer to "9 Coding"
points for information on coding.
The differences are:
• Thematical coding: Always available.
• Free coding: Always available.
• Quick coding: Not available.
• Codes of auto points overwrite the codes of points existing in the active job
with the same point ID but with a different code as the auto point.
• Codes of auto points can be changed when no auto points are being logged.
• Up to three attributes can be stored with a code

Survey - Auto Points Zoom80 | 1506


Properties of auto The properties stored with auto points are:
points • Class: MEAS
• Sub class: TPS
• Source: Survey (Auto) or Survey (Auto Of)
• Instrument source: TPS

Averaging of auto An average is never calculated for auto points even if a measured point of class
points MEAS already exists with the same point ID.

43.4 Offset Points of Auto Points
43.4.1 Overview

Description Offset points


• can be created with auto points when auto points are stored to the database.
• can be to the left or to the right of auto points.
• are automatically computed with the logging of auto points, if configured.
• form a chain relative to the chain of auto points to which they are related.
Subsequently computed chains are independent from each other.
• can be coded independently of auto points.
• have the same time of when they were stored as the auto points to which they
are related.
• have the same coding functionality, properties and averaging functionality as
auto points. Refer to "43.1 Overview".

Up to two offset points can be related to one auto point.


The screens for the configuration of offset points are identical except for the title
Auto Points - Offset 1 and Auto Points - Offset 2. For simplicity, the title
Auto Points - Offset is used in the following description.

Computation of The computation of offset points depends on the number of auto points in one
offset points chain.
One auto point
No offset points are computed or stored.

Three or more auto points


The first offset points are computed perpendicular to the line between the first

The last offset point is computed perpendicular to the line between the last auto
point and the one before.
All other offset points are computed on a bearing. The bearing is half of the angle
between the last and the next measured auto point.

Description Remote point is used to determine the 3D coordinates of inaccessible points, for
example on bridges. The horizontal distance to a base point directly underneath
or above the remote point is measured. Then the instrument is aimed at the
remote point. The coordinates of the remote point are calculated with the
distance measured to the base point and the angles measured to the remote
point.

45 Survey Cross Section

45.1 Overview

Description The Survey Cross Section application program allows for the automatic changing
of codes during a survey. This is particularly useful when surveying multiple cross
sections. Examples could include surveys of railway lines, roads, small water-
ways, driveways and paths.

The codes for the elements in the cross section to be surveyed are all stored and
pre-defined in a template. The codes are then automatically changed after each
point observation.

Diagram

Template Templates are used to pre-define the order of the codes for the survey.
A template pre-defines
• the coding sequence of a cross section.
• the type of coding.

Close traverse on This option is used for determining the closure of a closed loop traverse,
internal reference consisting of a single control point with an arbitrary backsight azimuth. This
allows completion of a traverse without having to reoccupy the initial station
setup to measure a closing angle. The positional closure is calculated by
comparing the control position of the initial station setup to the measured posi-
tion of the final foresight. The angular closure is calculated by comparing the set
azimuth of the initial backsight to the azimuth of the final measured leg.

46.8.4 Creating a Control Point from Backsight by Azimuth

Description If a traverse is to be established on existing control points, two control points


must be defined to start the traverse. If the traverse absolute position is arbi-
trary, it can be convenient to define the control in the field with arbitrary values.
This functionality is an option to turn the averaged position value into a control
point when a backsight by azimuth is collected.

47 Volume Calculations

47.1 Overview

Description The Volume Calculations application program allows surfaces to be measured


and volumes (and other information) to be computed from these surfaces.

Calculation tasks The Volume calculations application program can be used for the following tasks:
• Measuring points (surface points and boundary points) defining a new surface
or extending existing surfaces from the active job.
• Calculating the triangulation of the measured surface points to establish the
surface.
• Calculating volumes from a reference (3D point, entered elevation) or by a
stockpile method.
The surface calculation can be made from:
• existing point data in the job.
• manually measured points.
• entered coordinates.

Activating the The Volume Calculations application program must be activated via a licence key.
application program Refer to "26 Tools...\Licence Keys" for information on how to activate the appli-
cation program.

Point types Heights and positions are always taken into account. Points must have full coor-
dinate triplets.
