MBS Elevations

MBS Elevations enables the surveyor to measure elevations and view the elevation graphically as it is being measured making it quick and easy to check accuracy and that no important information is being missed. Direct or radio modem link to a Total Station allows the data to be captured quickly and economically.

The process involves the definition of vertical planes upon which intersected rays from the Total Station are projected. The data can be strung and layered interactively with surveyed information displayed in layer colours. The main advantage of this method is that having defined your plane (with two distance points) only horizontal and vertical angles are then required resulting in extremely rapid and accurate observation of even the most intricate detail.

The current plane can be changed by a parallel offset in either direction by measuring one distance – intersections can then be continued on this offset plane.

Data is surveyed, real-time in 3D, allowing flexible export of both 3D and 2D data in DXF format for aesthetic enhancement in all major CAD software packages.

Benefits 

• High productivity:  Quick and efficient to use minimising wasted time on site.
• High accuracy:     Collect as many measurements and control information as necessary.
• Graphical output:  Enabling easy checking for inaccurate or missing information.
• High flexibility:      Use measuring techniques appropriate for the building being surveyed.
