XSect-Direct
To conduct the cross-section survey with a total station using direct measurement method.
The points are surveyed similar to the observations from the Sideshot-Direct dialog.
Specific cross-section survey features are also available:
-
- opens the Pole measurement dialog to create a point calculated as an offset from the point that was measured with a TS. Taking pole-measured points is useful when you are unable to measure them directly. The button is active after measuring a point with a TS.
- Section view semitransparent overlay panel - starts displaying measured points visually in section layout for better control over the survey. To display this overlay panel on the map click
in the XSect-Direct: Map view and check the Section View box in the General tab of the Map Properties dialog.
- Ordered X-Section Segment - adds ordered segment flag in the raw data record for a point being measured. This special flag controls the order of cross-section segments in post-processing of some data export formats. Click
and select this command from the dialog menu to activate. When active, the green mark
is displayed near the command.
