15 Active GNSS Control Points Post-Processing or Real Time? yes Do we need to to obtain TPS coordinates Immediately on the building s top? no The surveyor will need to obtain the coordinates provided by GPS immediately on the TPS side The surveyor will need to obtain the coordinates provided by GPS in his office The Active Control Points must operate in Real time mode Wireless Communication GMX92 GG A GNSS Constinuously Operated Reference Station Leica GMX92 GG is mandatory in both case and must be located closed to the construction side ( less than 1 km ideally ) The Active Control Points can operate in Post-Processing mode Logging files on MC* GRX12 Pro GG 15 * MC = Memory Card

16 Active GNSS Control Points GNSS Monitoring Stations POST PROCESSING XYZ MCF256 Compact Flash card 256 MB READER In the Survey Office the PC running Leica GNSS Spider will log the observations of the CORS station continuously (RINEX). When the MC content will be downloaded on the PC, Leica LGO will be used to post-process the data and obtain the coordinates XYZ that will be used to set-up the coordinates of the TPS by free resection. 16

17 GNSS measurements are processed in «Mixed Tracks» mode using Leica LGO 17

18 Active GNSS Control Points GNSS Monitoring Stations Real-Time xyz xyz xyz xyz XYZ On the top of the buiding where the surveyor is setting up his Total Station, a Laptop PC running Leica GNSS Spider Positioning will be used to gather the data streams from every GNSS receiver in real time and will display the coordinates on the screen with information about the accuracy, availability and reliability. 18

21 3D transformation By using the measurement and the approximate (or setup with local axis) coordinates of the station and an approximate Hz orientation (or any direction) we are computing the local coordinate of all the control points. Then we basically have to compute a 3D transformation from the local coordinates into the control points reference system. 3 translations along X, Y and Z axis 3 rotations along the X,Y and Z axis 1 scale factor 21

30 Considerations The way to design a solution is to first try to derive the calculations needed to provide the results. What can be computed by using the observables to derive the coordinates, can be computed by using directly the coordinates derived from the observations ( Joel s Principle ) and by considering the associated variance-covariance matrices. To provide «extreme» results we have to revisit the way we are calculating our coordinates Functional models developed for Photogrammetric applications have always been a source of inspiration. Active Control Point Concept can be extended to a network. GNSS Network corrections has demonstrated successful capacity to support monitoring operations. Much closed integration between GNSS measurements and TPS into a global computing scheme (mutual benefit) 3

34 Networked Total Stations Concept (patented) Automatic Total Stations are networked using common points (pass points) that must be only considered as stable during the measurement cycles. GPS antenna s collocated with 36 degree reflectors are providing control points on the spot. 34
