OK closes the screen and returns to Measure Hidden Point.
There, Difference in height still displays the positive or negative height differ-
ence between the centre of the hidden point measurement device and the tar-
get point. The heights of the hidden point measurement device above the
ground, and the target point above the hidden point, are applied when the
hidden point is computed. For hidden point measurement methods using two
known points, this computation is done for each known point. In this case, the
height of the hidden point is the average.

Measure Foresight

Measure foresight provides points calculated from averaged backsight-fore-
sight sets from the setup position.
Measure foresight includes:
Collecting, reviewing and editing sets
•
• Classifying the resulting foresight points independently from other points
Exporting the raw observations in order to process the data in the office.
•
☞ Measure foresight cannot be used when the setup was done using
the setup method Orientate to object.
Select Measure foresight in the toolbox.
