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!

Tersus Geomatics Office is integrated office software to manage and process data for NeoRTK, the RTK survey receiver. It is laid out with visualized toolbars and logical icons to easily handle GNSS data processing, baseline processing and network adjustment, etc. It is the software set to import, update and analyze data effectively.  Watch the video to know how to do data processing after static surveying data collection with NeoRTK.  Learn more, click here .  Inquiry, click here . 

How to Use Oscar to Collect Static Data for A Given Length of Time

Usually, we need to collect static data for a given length of time, for example, 2 hours. In the past, the surveyor had to record the start time and keep an eye on the clock all the time. The function of setting the static collection duration in Oscar GNSS Receiver can solve this problem. When setting the static survey, the surveyor only needs to enter the duration time, then start it, and no more attention will be required. When the time is up, Oscar will automatically stop recording, with no fewer or more data. Now we show you how to set the Oscar static collection duration on the OLED display of Oscar. 1. Turn on the Oscar, press the Power ON/OFF button and Function (FN) button, and go to Mode Config -> Static. The default option of Static is OFF, and you can press the Function (FN) button to switch it to “Auto” or “Manual”. 2. Go to Duration to set the collection time, for example, 120 minutes. 3. Set other options, then choose “Confirm”, and it will start to collect st...

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 sig...
