Nice video really helpful. I have one doubt regarding the points location or csv file. Like the coordinate points are taken from scan file or you use any additional tool for it.
Yes thank you for this demonstration it’s very helpful. Quick question: I’m doing a project that’ll be around 230 scans. If I have 23 targets that will be shot by surveyors will that be enough to? Not all scans will have targets in them just certain ones probably 10/15 scans total.
I know this is a late reply to your question, but it is enough! I just finished a 500 scan project and the surveyors gave me around 20 targets. It worked out like a charm
RTK GNSS (in my case Topcon Hiper VR connected to an RTN) to establish two points on a ground coordinate system and then set up on these (to inherit the correct global/GNSS coordinates) and measure the remaining points with a robotic total station (Topcon GT).
It can do both. Up to you how you structure your registration. If you register & verify (lock) your cluster BEFORE importing control, then you would just be placing the cluster onto control. If you import the control first and THEN register your scans, that will impact drift and the compounding error. So depends on your workflow...

Thank you for a straight forward demonstration.

nice video! got a question what sort of GPS data are you using to import as your survey points. thanks mitchell

I can import the survey points, see them in the reference tab but cannot locate them and so not register them
Is this scaling or "controlling" your scan project (think of minimizing drift) or is it just placing it in a coordinate system?

@@LD-so7yb I guess in this case if he wanted to control drift, he can always unlock this "scans" cluster and then run registration, is that right?
@@CR3DT reasonable thought, but you have to be careful. Short distances I would not do it this way. Long distances definitely.
