1. A method for site calibration of a controller, the method comprising the acts of:
- determining coordinates of a point in a first coordinate system based on at least one measurement by a surveying device;
determining coordinates of the point in a second coordinate system based on data provided by a global positioning device;
calculating a transformation of the first coordinate system relative to the second coordinate system based on the coordinates determined for the point; and
calibrating the controller based, at least in part, on the transformation.

Abstract
A system and method for site calibration of a controller is provided. In one embodiment, a method may include determining coordinates of a point in a first coordinate system based on at least one measurement by a surveying device, determining coordinates of the point in a second coordinate system based on data provided by a global positioning device, and calculating a transformation of the first coordinate system relative to the second coordinate system based on the coordinates determined for the point. The method may further include calibrating the controller based, at least in part, on the transformation.

12. A system comprising:
-
a surveying device configured to measure a point in a first coordinate system; a global positioning device configured to determine coordinates of the point in second coordinate system; and a controller configured to interoperate with the surveying device and the global positioning device, wherein the controller is configured to; determine coordinates of the point in a first coordinate system based on at least one measurement by the surveying device; determine coordinates of the point in a second coordinate system based on data provided by the global positioning device; calculate a transformation of the first coordinate system relative to the second coordinate system based on the coordinates determined for the point; and calibrate the controller based, at least in part, on the transformation. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
