Measure - Auto Points
56.1
Overview
Auto points are used to log points automatically at a specified rate. Addition-
ally, individual auto points can be stored outside the defined rate.
Auto points can be collected in the Measure app. A page is visible when log-
ging of auto points is active.
Auto points are used in moving applications to document a track which was
walked or driven along. Auto points that are logged between starting and stop-
ping logging of auto points form one chain. A new chain is formed each time
logging of auto points is started.
Up to two offset points related to one auto point can be logged. The offset
points can be both to the left or right and they can be coded independently of
each other and of the auto points.
Logging of auto points is possible for both TS and GS.
Coding of auto points is similar to coding manually occupied points. Refer to
"27 Coding" for information on coding.
The differences are:
Type
Description
Point coding
Always available. Without linework.
Free coding
Always available. Same as for manually measured points.
Quick coding
Not available.
Codes of auto points overwrite the codes of points with the same point ID but
a different code, existing in the job.
Codes of auto points can be changed when no auto points are being logged.
Up to eight attributes can be stored with a code.
An average is never calculated for auto points even if a manually occupied
point of class
Measured
already exists with the same point ID.
