Remote Elevation

If you set your base on a point with known elevation, you can begin

collecting data right away. However, if your base station is on a new

point, then you should calculate the elevation of the base and create
or update a vertical site before collecting new data. This can be done

in conjunction with horizontal localization, or you can use the Remote

Elevation screen.

You can use the Remote Elevation screen to occupy a

vertical benchmark with the rover. Applying the results

of the occupation will update the base point elevation
and create a new one-point vertical localization without

entering the Solve Localization wizard. This procedure
will not effect the horizontal localization adjustment.
