GUIDE METHOD FOR GUIDING A DEVICE THAT IS DESIGNED TO INSERT ELEMENTS INTO THE GROUND IN ORDER TO MAKE A STRUCTURE, AND A DEVICE FOR INSERTING AT LEAST ONE ELEMENT INTO THE GROUND USING SUCH A GUIDE METHOD
First Claim
1. A guide method for guiding a device that is designed to insert elements into the ground in order to make a structure, the method comprising the following steps:
- establishing topographical points and determining the coordinates of these points in an X, Y, Z frame of reference;
putting a measuring station in place in the vicinity of a location where the structure is to be made and determining the X, Y, Z position of said measuring station with reference to one or more topographical points;
determining, by means of said measuring station, the distance and the angle between said insertion device and the measuring station;
calculating the position of the device by means of the measured distance and the known position of the measuring station; and
displacing the insertion device so that said elements are in register on the insertion axis with given positions where the elements are to be inserted into the ground.
