Maptek Scanner Operator Manual - XR3
Defined Name setup
Defined Name scans can be set up according to 4 different scanner and
accessory applications:
A. Scanner (only) on tripod
Defined Name (no further options)
This is the simplest setup. Only a name is supplied for the scan. No
location or back-sighting (for orientation) information is provided with the
scan data itself. However, this information can be provided later when
processing in software.
B. Scanner with GPS on tripod (uses Bluetooth)
Defined Name (using Compass option)
This type of setup uses a third party GPS to determine the location of
the scanner. The scanner's internal compass provides rudimentary
orientation data.
C. Scanner with GPS on Vehicle mount (uses Bluetooth)
Defined Name (using GPS track option)
This type of scan is taken from a scanner mounted to a vehicle. The
vehicle is driven a short distance, stopped and then scanning
commenced while the vehicle is stationary.
