Precise Surveying - Field Applications & Concepts

• With single-epoch measurements, the rover just logs the

first position it computes on that point (no position
averaging).

Logging Points in
Continuous Mode

Typical Use

Determining and logging the coordinates of points along the
line (trajectory) followed by the rover.

Key Points

• Make sure the rover delivers RTK positions before starting

the job. (Initialization must be achieved and maintained.)

• Hold the antenna pole vertical all along the line.

• Points are automatically logged at regular intervals of time

or distance. You set the log interval before starting the
survey.

• Because you will be steadily moving along the surveyed

trajectory, all logged points will necessarily be “one-shot”
points, i.e. the first position solution available at the time
