Survey Data Collection .
The Data Collection screen is used to collect
GPS measurements and store new points in the
job.
GPS Status
(at top of screen): displays the
current solution type, the data modem
reception quality, the number of satellites used
and the horizontal precision computed by the
receiver. When this area is tapped, the GPS
Status screen will open (Page R-172).
Point
: is where you enter the point name for
the next point to be stored.
Desc
: is where you enter the description for the next point to be
stored.
Set HR : displays the current antenna measurement and measure to
setting. You can change the antenna measurement by entering a new
value in the edit box. This new antenna height will be sent to the
receiver with your next data collection point. You can change both
the antenna measurement and measure to setting by tapping on
Set HR to open the Receiver Antenna screen (Page R-184).
Traverse : opens the Traverse Base screen, described below.
Control : opens the Control Points screen (Page R-195).
Topo SS : stores a point with a single epoch of data. The current
position is checked against the criteria, and if acceptable, the point is
stored.
Note: The Topo SS function never puts the receiver in static mode, so
the precision of the rapid side shot will be less than a point occupied
in static mode.
