Can you post a small piece of a FieldGenius .raw file?
I have always been an advocate of this and have dabbled in it for years.
We’re shooting for design. Took an abundance of shots in an area with a mitered end section. Got top and bottom of bank too.
Not 100% sure what you mean by match points. There is a paved road running through the project. Do you mean matching a sod elevation with the nearest ...
@holy-cow Using a point on the rod. It’s above my pay grade to consider the sod removal. Will tape a sod sample to the field notes. We have to shoo...
@lurker No soil, just sod. Good sod at that. This is an upper middle class area.
No, because there aren't going to be any crosswalks. Good point.
I'm curious as to why you didn't use a tripod. Maybe too dark down there for an optical plummet?
@sarkiss Oh. So no way to create a straight line. Got it.
You are definitely old school. Yes, that’s what they used to call it. AKA “bucking in.” I’ve done it several times.
Project Update We're not going to get back to this project until late next week. Due to the extreme Florida heat, we're doing stability B and C BM i...
I’ve always preferred azimuths but, as you know, they aren’t used anymore in the U.S. except maybe by the military.
Great training, especially true on my current project where I did find a traverse point IRC very close to where a boundary corner was supposed to have...
Here at Orange County Public Works in Orlando, FL we use red caps marked O.C. TRAV POINT on 5/8" rebar. We do come across traverse point caps on rebar...
We did this in case there was a typo. The coordinates we got were pretty close to the published coordinates on the CCR.
Will this change be in the raw data?
We set up the base station on a new point, which we called 3001, and started locating with the rover. We will be using 3001 throughout the duration of...
If anyone is curious, here's the coordinate file. Note that the 500 number point range is the calculated points and the 200 number point range is the ...
