Unless they let you buy the "construction instrument" unlock code then it works fine.I imagine there is a vice versa "survey instruments" code. Leica ...
This graph is interesting John, can you tell me the source please as I would like to read in more detail?I am currently assessing reciprocal vertical ...
2 secs over that distance is 5mm (or 0.015") so if the rest of your setup is good you may be able to stay within your error budget.Although I have hea...
I think Jim's method will work for you, if not only for the simple reason that the total station/theodolite will generally have a higher magnification...
Thanks very much, both of you, for your help.I have already (successfully) used the StarTSC converter to convert from Trimble DC format.Also the Trimb...
fix the string on the top mat every couple of metres, they can't go far wrong then.
We tend to wait until the base steel is in and wedged or otherwise fixed against sliding.Then put a wrap of electrical tape around a top mat bar with ...
anyone seen or used the new AT360 target yet?I am curious if it will be any more accurate than the MT1000 and if so, how?I only find that the MT1000 v...
What are the horizontal clamp issues? I'm not aware of these.My model has endless momvement, no clamps. I think you can get nivos with clamps though.
My Nivo is still for sale if you want a small instrument with Spectra Precision (ex TDS) Survey pro software on it.
if you want to draw on a vertical plane that is aligned to a building elevation, for example.first use the command ucs e or ucs obj to align the ucs t...
The prism constant tells you whether it's nodal or not. I think the paper you referred to originally explains. Some circular prisms have 2 positions s...
I have tried rotating the MT1000 and measuring the deltas.In passive mode I found up to about 4-5mm, same with the standard trimble 360.In active mode...
Leica GMP111 (not GMP111-0) is what I use for max accuracy.This has a -17.5 constant and can be picked up quite cheap 2nd hand.I sharpen the points us...
Is this the one where the last (or first) 4 digits of the serial number are the bluetooth pass?
3d modelling in Civil 3d is probably based around DTMsIf you want to make 3d objects with vertical faces, undersides etc; then you can use the 3D mode...
Yes there are no magic shortcuts, it just measures the points as you do a resection instead of having to measure them first with the GPS. If you can l...
