Data Collection Screen

There are different methods to collect data:

Point : Use this function to take the most precise

measurement to a point. Depending on your settings, this
function will put the receiver into static mode, mark the event

in the post processing logging file, and open the Occupy Data

Points screen where you can remain in static mode for the
desired length of time and store the point.

Topo SS : Use this function to quickly store a point with

slightly less precision. This function will use the latest

receiver position from the status message to store a point.

The receiver is not set to static mode and the Occupy Data
Points screen is not opened.

Offset : Use this function when you can not occupy the point

of interest directly with the RTK rover. This function allows

you to occupy a reference point and then measure an offset

distance (manually or with a laser range finder) to the point
of interest.

Feature : Use this function to collect multiple points with an

auto incremented point name. You can use a time or distance

interval to collect points continuously all with the same

description, layer, and attributes, or you store points
manually and be prompted for descriptions, layers, and

attributes for each point.

Control : Use this function to launch the GPS Control Points

screen, where you can add control points to your localization

adjustment, or take a check measurement to an existing
control point.

Traverse Base : Use this function to launch the Traverse

Base workflow described below.
