Area Name Setting
The dialog is a part of the Grid Scan and Feature Scan wizards.
To set up an area for scanning with a robotic total station.
- Enter a Name of the scan project, where the scan data will be saved. The folder with that name will be created in the in Jobs/<current job name>/FIELD_SCAN folder. Click
to select an existing scan project.
- From the Area Type list, select the way to define the borders of an area to scan:
- Square (Wall) - you can specify two (top left and bottom right) corners of the area. The software creates a rectangle using these parameters, where the scanning will be performed.
- Polygonal (Wall) - you can specify a few (more than two) points as vertexes of a polygon. The scanning will be performed inside the created polygon.
- All around (Wall) - you can specify two points to define the height of the panorama with a 360° views in the horizontal plane. The scanning will be performed inside the created cylinder.
- 1 line - you can specify two points to define the width of the panorama with a 360° views in the vertical plane. The scanning will be performed inside the created cylinder.
- Specify plane (Floor) - you can specify three or four points on the plane (usually a floor). The software creates an area on the plane using the points, where the scanning will be performed within defined boundaries.
- If you select the With Image check box, the Robot will calculate how many photo images are required to shut inside the selected area and take the photo(s). The Panorama screen will display the image.
- Click Next to set the scan area parameters.
