4.1.4. Coordintates
 
There are different ways to enter coordinates into GART-2000® CE. One possibility is to enter them manually; another possibility is to import coordinates from a file. With the coordinate input and output modules it is possible to exchange coordinates from one GART-2000® CE project to another. Consequently, there is the possibility of building up a fixed stock of coordinates and to import the needed coordinates into new projects from otherfiles.
 
Coordinates can be entered manually in the Input > Coordinates submenu. The coordinates have to be entered with respect to the projection defined in the Initial > Constants > GPS submenu (e.g. UTM or Gauss-Krueger). The coordinates can be entered either in plane or, using the button <Geo.>, geographical (WGS84) mode. A conversion between user-coordinates and geographical mode is done automatically when switching between the modes. Please note that the current selected user coordinate system in the Initial > Constants >GPS submenu is applied for the conversion.
 
The fields have the following meanings:
 

Pnt No

Point number (up to 32 alphanumerical characters)

Code Point code (can be changed in the file vp_art.txt)
MA Marker type (can be changed in the file vp_vmrk.txt)
East East-coordinate in the user system [m]
North North-coordinate in the user system [m]
Height Height in the user system [m]
AcP Precision of the position calculation:
0  - no position
D - digitized point
M - measured point
R - calculated point
S - control point
AcH Precision height calculation:
0 - no height
1 - Order 1 (lowest order, e.g. total station measurement)
2 - Order 2 (medium order)
3 - Order 3 (highest order, e.g. height control point)
Comment Comment for additional point information (can be changed in the file vp_komme.txt)
