Stake Point
To stake design points. MAGNET Field supports points staking in several modes - standard mode, PTL (point to line), and Drape.
Note:
- If the dialog name contains "(PTL)", it means that the PTL mode is activated for the survey or the stakeout. To activate or deactivate, click
and select Setup - PTL mode.
- If the dialog name contains "(Drape)", it means that the Drape mode is activated for the stakeout. To activate or deactivate, click
and select Setup - Drape mode (available for optical survey configuration with selected robotic total stations).
To stake a point:
- Select either the Design Point or the Nearest Point.
- If the Design Point is selected, enter a point name manually, or select from the map
or from the list
of job points. The Code field displays the code for the design point.
- If the Nearest Point is selected, MAGNET Field will automatically look for a nearest point among existing points in the current job. This point will be used as the point to be staked.
- For GNSS configuration - enter the antenna height. Click the button to select a method used to measure the antenna height (
Vertical or
Slant). Type the antenna height value manually or click the button to select one of the previously used values from the context menu.
Note: If the Unknown antenna model is selected during configuration, only the Vertical antenna height measurement method is available.
Note: In the mmGPS+ survey and stakeout routines, the antenna height value should be entered as the vertical height from the ground point to the rover's ARP. More...
- For TS configuration - Enter the height of the target. Type the value manually or click the button with current target icon to select one of the previously used values from the context menu. Select Edit from the context menu to open the Targets dialog to add or modify target configurations. Depending on the selected target type, the target icon looks like:
