    摘要: A method for providing dynamic state information for a coordinate measuring machine that includes a base, a probe head, a machine structure linking the probe head to the base and a drive mechanism that moves the probe head. A dynamic model with first state variables represents an actual state of physical properties of the coordinate measuring machine. The first state variables are provided in a database and the actual state of the coordinate measuring machine is determined using the dynamic model. The state variables are monitored and, based thereon, the change of the state variables is determined. Updated, second state variables are set regarding the determined change of the first state variables. The dynamic model is updated using the second state variables in place of the first state variables, wherein the actual state of the coordinate measuring machine is calculated based on the second state variables.

    摘要: A mobile field controller, together with a geodetic surveying device, forms a one-person measurement system for geodetic position determination. The field controller allows the spatial orientation of the field controller to be determined. The field controller supports a geodetic target object and has a distance-measuring unit that measures the distance between the field controller and a target point, the distance being optically marked by the field controller, as a result of which a 3D point cloud is generated without physical contact to a target point. When surveying a specific terrain region, algorithms analyzing the 3D point cloud are saved in a control and evaluation unit of the field controller. The absolute position of the target point is calculated from the data of the spatial orientation of the field controller, the distance between field controller and target point and the absolute position of the geodetic target object.
