Map rotation in Stakeout

Nuwa app has always been committed to favorable user interaction experience. During the staking process, we often find that we are still some distance away from the target point. At this time we need to go to the target point for staking, but a simple connection to the target point in the app is not enough. This line is not intuitive enough that can't directly tell us which direction should go and how many meters should walk.
Therefore, in the previous versions of Nuwa, we added a large blue arrow to the stakeout interface. It will calculate the direction that the surveyor should move based on the azimuth of the compass and the target point in the controller. Although this indicates the direction intuitively to a certain extent, it is not the final goal for Tersus who strives for excellence.


In the latest Nuwa version, we added the map rotation function, which can be turned on by selecting [Rotate map when staking] in config of the Stakeout interface. The meaning of map rotation means that the background map displayed in the controller will be rotated according to the face orientation of the surveyor; when the surveyor selects the point to be staked out, the point to be staked out will be displayed on the rotated map and will be displayed graphically telling you intuitively that you should go forward, right, left front or left back.


Interestingly, if you are using the Oscar Ultimate, the tilting direction of the ranging pole will also be displayed during the tilting and stakeout process. During the tilting process, it means that the position of the pole tip is the position to be staked out, so you only need to pay attention to whether the position of the pole tip reaches the point to be staked out.


Enjoy the new staking experience brought by Tersus!

What is CORS network? How to connect to CORS network with external Bluetooth module and mobile phone?

A CORS is a Continuously Operating Reference Station. The CORS is an appealing way to do RTK due to its convenience and large coverage area. While Tersus Precis-BX305 currently does not support build-in NTRIP client feature. An alternative way to connect CORS network is employing external Bluetooth module and a cellphone. Here is a detailed procedure about how to connect to CORS Network with Precis-BX305 board.  Demonstration of connecting Precis BX305 to CORS Network Hardware & Software Requirement Precis-BX305 GNSS antenna GNSS antenna cable  External Bluetooth module Bluetooth cable Cell phone (android system) 5V DC charger Software required Ntrip client (free android apps)    Connect to CORS Network Please follow below steps.  Connect GNSS antenna to Precis-BX305. Connect external Bluetooth module to either COM1 or COM2 of the board Connect to power supplier and plug in/turn on the power Turn on the Bluetooth of the mobile phone and scan and pai

Three Typical Situations of Earthwork Measurement

  Three Typical Situations of Earthwork Measurement Tips for earthwork measurement under different circumstances with Tersus Oscar GNSS receiver and NUWA APP Earthwork calculations are essential in many survey projects, but the complexity of measurement and calculations causes many new engineers headaches. In general, earthwork calculation is divided into two parts: excavation and filling, which can also be simply understood as volume and capacity calculation. The following are the Tips for using the Tersus Oscar GNSS receiver and NUWA App for earthwork measurement under different circumstances. The powerful earthwork calculation function of the NUWA app can calculate the result and quickly; you only need to import the survey points and then input the reference altitude. Notes for measurement: When measuring points, we should measure as many points on the surface of the object as possible. The density of survey points needs to be strengthened in places where the terrain changes signifi
