Find Station

To identify the station by computing the distance from the beginning of the road to the projection of the point to the road, and the offset of the point from the center line of the road:

  1. Enter the name of the Road, Horizontal Alignment or Horizontal and Vertical Alignments or select it from the list.
  2. Enter the name of the Point for which to find station. You can select a known point from the map or the list or measure the current point and store it after taking a measurement.
  3. Select the Code and attributes of the Point. Code can be entered manually or chosen from the drop-down list.
  4. Enter the Antenna Height above the mark. Also the measurement type for the height needs to be specified: Slant or Vertical.
  5. The display of the current coordinates depends on the selected coordinate system.
  6. Click to compute the station and offsets of the selected known point.
  7. Click or to compute and display the station and offsets to the current measured point in results. For details on description of the buttons, see Topo Measurement.

    Note:
    - The icon is not displayed when the Precise option is not selected in the Topo Survey settings (GNSS mode).
    - The icon is not displayed when the Quick option is not selected in the Topo Survey settings (GNSS mode).
    The Topo Survey dialog can be called by clicking the button in the Status panel.

The dialog contains the Status panel along the top.
