The camera is positioned at reference point PI. In this position, it can be rotated to two different alignment positions PI* and PI**. In the first of these rotation positions PI*, the screen shows (among other things) the depiction PII′ of the second reference point PII lying at a distance and a number of marking points (P1′, P2′, PT, P4′, P5′, . . . ) which are marked by abrupt changes in the brightness profile of the image. In the second rotation position PI**, only certain marking points (P1″, P2″, P3″, . . . ) selected according to certain criteria are shown as well as the measuring point M to be surveyed. The position of an imaginary beam in geometrical space, on which the measuring point M and the reference point PI are located, is then calculated from these screen images. Its (M) absolute space coordinates can be calculated from the direction of the beam and the distance value (of PI from M). | 05-09-2013 |
