4.2 PT Survey
4.2.1 Survey
Antenna: Consist of Vertical H and Slant H.
Vertical H: The height from ground point to the bottom of receiver. When using
range pole, the vertical height is the pole height.
Slant H: The height from the ground point to static measurement tick mark
(X91+ is the blue rubber ring, i80 is the receiver bottom) of receiver, usually
this height is needed when setting up the receiver on a tripod.
Method: Consist of Topographic PT, Control PT, Quick PT, Continuous PT,
Offset PT, Compensate PT and Corner PT.
Control PT: Control survey points will take long time to observe, but it can
provide high precision result.
Continuous PT: Continuously survey points automatically according to a
preset fixed time period or space distance (users can select By Time or By
Distance after clicking survey icon).
Offset PT: When users cannot reach the target point, this function is helpful.
Input the azimuth angle between the target point and the current position
102
(Users can measure the current point and any point on the direction of the
target point, and get the angle by calculation function on Tools menu),
horizontal distance, vertical distance (If the target point is higher than the
current point, input a positive value; if lower, input a negative value).
Compensate PT: When the range pole/level is tilted, the survey result will be
automatically compensated to normal level condition. The survey result is of
the location of the range pole bottom (This function is only available with those
RTK receiver with tilt survey function, compass and EBubble calibration should
be done before available).
Corner PT: This is recommended for tilt survey or where receiver can’t be
centered.
Note: Before surveying, users should set parameters. Go to Setting, set the
Horizontal Precision to be higher than the value of H, Vertical Precision to
be higher than the value of V. If the current solution is non-fixed (say float or
DGPS or 3D/single point), but users want to go ahead with the point collection
procedure, please un-tick Fixed Solution. If the rover receiver keeps static,
but it reminds movement of the rover receiver (If users find the coordinate is
changing a lot while the rover receiver keeps static), this could be caused by
site calibration/localization error.
