Geodesic measuring device with automatic extremely precise targeting functionality

摘要

The device (1) has an evaluation unit for executing an automatic target point focusing function by automatically receiving a camera image of a target mark. The evaluation unit matches a target mark pattern with the target mark in the camera image by an image processing function. The evaluation unit changes orientation of a focusing apparatus in a motorized manner depending on a position of a main point in the camera image in the matched state of the pattern such that an optical target axis (OA) is oriented at the target point. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for determining a position of a target point (2) a computer program product comprising a program code for executing a method for determining a position of a target point.
