You will notice screen as below when a file has been created with our selected Data

Dictionary.

Point Collection Rules

Point Stay stationary at the point (A) and waits for No. Satellites >= 4 and Epoch > 20s to ensure its accuracy.

If logging interval = 1s ( wait for = 20 )

If logging interval = 5s (wait for = 4)

To Collect a POINT

Highlight a POINT feature (for example, Survey Mark), click CREATE.

A COLLECT FEATURE SCREEN/ window pop out as shown below for us to key in

the attribute information for the selected feature (Survey Mark Point)

Will also notice on the right corner of the window, the PENCIL symbol indicates the

number of epochs that have occurred since starting to record. An Epoch is defined by

our logging interval which we have previously defined

Fill in the Attribute > Click OK.

Point A


7/15

Line Collection Rules

Line Stay stationary at the beginning point of line (Point A) , wait for No. Satellites >=4 and Epoch start to increase from 1s (must make sure it is increasing always when logging), start logging along the line, and finish logging at Point B.

If logging interval = 1s, we can easily notice if is continue increasing. If logging interval =

5s, we can monitor if is increasing by listening to the tu tut sound. (When epoch starting or stopping, there is a sound to indicate.)

To Collect a LINE

Highlight a LINE feature (In this case, Foot Path), Click CREATE.


the attribute information for the selected feature (Foot Path Line)





Point A Point B

To Collect an AREA

Highlight a LINE feature (In this case, Area Generic), select CREATE.


the attribute information for the selected feature (Area Generic Area )





Note that AREA GENERIC is selected in this case, as there is NO AREA FEATURE being

created in our DATA DICTIONARY. Therefore, we use the generic feature.

Area Collection Rules

Stay stationary at the beginning point of line (Point A), wait for No. Satellites >=4 and Epoch start to increase from 1s (must make sure it is increasing always when logging), start logging along the line, and finish logging at Point A to form an area

If logging interval = 1s, we can easily notice if is continuously increasing. If logging interval

= 5s, we can monitor if is increasing by listening to the tu tut sound. (When epoch starting or stopping, there is a sound to indicate.)

Point A

To UPDATE Features

We have collected POINT, LINE and AREA in the exercise. Assuming that we wanted

to update the features.

Click on DATA MAIN MENU > Choose UPDATE (SUB MENU). List of Features that we have collected will be showed on the screen.
