Leveling Stakeout
Leveling Level Stakeout > .
The Leveling Stakeout screen is used to measure the elevation at an
existing point and compute a cut/fill value.
Stk Point: is the point in the current job that you want
to shoot to determine the cut/fill value. (The location for
this point must be known in advance since the leveling
routine cannot compute horizontal coordinates.)
Backsight Point: Lists the details for the current
backsight. If this is the first observation from the
current set up, most of the details will be unknown.
Next > : opens the Take Shot screen (Page R-260) where
the required shots are performed.
Turn to Benchmark
Leveling Level Turn to Benchmark .
The Turn to Benchmark screen is used to take a shot at a known
benchmark. When shooting a benchmark that will not be used as the
closing benchmark, the procedure is identical to shooting a leveling
side shot with the exception that this benchmark will be
the backsight in the next setup.
BM Point: is the point name for the benchmark. This
will usually be a new point when it is a non-closing
benchmark and will usually be the same point as the
starting benchmark when it is the closing benchmark.
Desc: is the optional description for the benchmark.
This is not applicable when shooting the closing
benchmark since the closing benchmark must already
exist in the current job.
Default Location for New Points: is where you specify
the northing and easting to use when shooting a new
point. This is not applicable when shooting the closing
