Benchmark

To determine the elevation of the total station occupation point by measuring point(s) with known elevation(s).

The benchmark wizard helps you to perform the procedure:

  1. Specify the occupation point in the Define Instrument setup group.

  2. Specify and measure point(s) with known elevation(s).
  3. Several dialog views are available to perform multiple known elevations measurements: The Benchmark: Normal view is used to specify a known elevation to measure and the Benchmark: Map view provides visual control over location of available points with known elevations. The Benchmark: Results view is used to review performed measurements results and to calculate the TS occupation elevation. Use the view selector in the dialog title bar to switch between views at any time.


  4. To review, manage and accept the results of performed measurements on a number of known elevations, use the controls provided in the Benchmark: Results dialog view.
