PORTABLE GNSS SURVEY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method for using a GNSS device to determine a position of an unknown point, the method comprising:
- determining a first position of a first point using the GNSS device;
capturing a first image from the first point using an image sensor of the GNSS device, the first image including the unknown point and at least one of a second point or a third point;
determining a second position of the second point;
capturing a second image from the second point, the second image including the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the third point;
determining a third position of the third point;
capturing a third image from the third point, the third image including the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the first point; and
calculating a fourth position of the unknown point based on the first, second, and third images and the first, second, and third positions.

Abstract
A method for using a GNSS device to determine a position of an unknown point includes determining positions of a first point, a second point, and a third point using the GNSS device. A first image is captured of the first point using an image sensor, the image includes the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the third point. A second image is captured from the second point; the second image includes the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the third point. A third image is captured from the third point; the third image includes the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the first point. A position of the unknown point is calculated based on the first, second, and third images and the first, second, and third positions.

11. A GNSS device comprising:
-
an image sensor; a display configured to display images captured with the image sensor; a user interface configured to receive user input; a processor configured to execute instructions; and memory containing a instructions executable on the processor, the instructions include instructions for; determining a first position of a first point using the GNSS device; capturing a first image from the first point using the image sensor, the first image including the unknown point and at least one of a second point or a third point; determining a second position of the second point; capturing a second image from the second point, the second image including the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the third point; determining a third position of the third point; capturing a third image from the third point, the third image including the unknown point and at least one of the second point or the first point; and calculating a fourth position of the unknown point based on the first, second, and third images and the first, second, and third positions.
