Hello please can you help me, I have trimble 5700 and I want to know how to transfer data, i saw your video but it was on an old version unfortunately it didn’t work for me.
I have been wondering what polylines are. I am 41 and been surveying for a little over 2 years. No one that I work with uses these features. I know very basic linework for straight lines. Intervals, curves, sequence and all the other features that are too numerous to name here, remained somewhat enigmatic. I really want to learn more so I can be better and more valuable and ultimately make more money. I appreciate you keeping this video accessible in a way I can grasp. I found this video searching "cad tools on Trimble access" and "how to calc points on trimble access". This is the best video I found and now I can't wait to try to use poly lines in the field. I'm not sure when I would use them but I know understand how. Thank you and I look forward to seeing more content from this channel!
Just to recap: VD = SD x cos(ZA). Delta(VD) = VD at point of interest - VD at BM; delta(VD) can be positive or negative. Elevation of point of interest = BM Elevation + Delta(VD) + Target Height at BM - Target Height at point of interest If you keep the same height of target then: Elevation of point of interest = BM Elevation + Delta(VD)
12:45 Seems EVERY tutorial ALWAYS skips the most important detailed parts to leaves people guessing. I understand it's because these settings are because of user's different regions etc etc.... but these kind of settings need to be explained in deep detail to avoid catastrophes such as wrong building placement or elevation.
2:33 How do you know EXACTLY which project height to enter? Where does this number come from? Is it a random or estimated number? Or an exact orthometric height that was measured? Thank you.
I know this is a bit of an old video, but since the R12i includes TIP and tilt compensation, is it possible to apply tilt compensation to shots taken with the total station while doing integrated surveying?
Thank you for the video , can you tell me please which app should i download , i'm working with GPS RTK Bluetooth , this app doesn't work with this GPS ! thank you :)
It seems to me that you would make your first measurement with all of the SV's enabled, and then QC the position with a each subset solutions. This QC is specifically to address multipath errors. The general theory is that if you have a multipath solution, the subsequent subset solutions with SV's in a different orientation will produce a different solution thus confirming a multipath error. It's the same theory of re-observing the point with a time separation. Contrarily, if the three positions agree, the solution is devoid of a multipath solution.
I've been taking a face shot prior to starting measure rounds and using that, rather than taking my foresight shot in measure rounds. Will this cause any error in my traverse?
I started using integrated surveying last fall, mainly because I use an SX 12 (total station & scanner in one instrument) and it doesn’t track very well especially when you walk behind objects, traffic, etc. Being able to hit the search button and have it lock on nearly instantaneously, it is such a timesaver. It is also great when you get into an area where you have a lot of obstructions but you only need a few shots to get it done so you can toggle to GNSS mode and continue surveying. I highly recommend it. It greatly increases efficiency. Thanks for the video, Wes!
