Where are you surveying?

Land Surveyor

hello every one!

i use the Trimble 5700 as a reciver and Trimble 5800 model as a rover for reding of refrence bench mark and my style is PPK.
and also i use the trimble businis center to fix my benchmarks coordinates and elevations.
When i Processing GNSS Baselines, trimble bussnis center autmaticly add the scale factor betwen points like 0.9992548.
my question is how can i fix this scale facto to 1.0000?

thank you very match.

    Dear friend,

    Its not about which instrument you use. Its about the concept of processing the data. Firstly you need to identify the closest projection scale factor of 1. This actually means that this point is having the least convergence and least error. The more the convergence the more the error and the projection scale factor will deviate from the value 1. So try to convert all the values near to 1 using basic mathematics, by keeping the closest point as the reference, with this adjustment you will be getting the better results. In case you require more details please send an email to me

      My friend!

      How Can i Ā convert all the values near to 1 Scale factor.

      please guide me bro.

      Thank you

        You will need to verify what I am about to write.

        I believe this will work if your project is of limited extent. Do not choose any standard projection because they all are meant to cover some significant area.

        I thin if you do not choose a projection from the list in TBC you will be given a local tangential TM projection. When you enter your points an origin coordinate will be assigned. I also think you may alter it to fall near the center of your project..

        If this works as I imagine, your scale factors will be nearly 1.000. Experiment.Ā 

        Bottom line is there is NO way to flatten an orange peal without tearing it. Double check you specs to see if picking a compromise "project scale factor" that is sufficiently precise Ā enough for the project in question.

        Dear Friend,

        It will be available within the post processing software given along with GPS. In the software there will an option to create any point as central meridian. if you select that option then all the scale factors gets automatically corrected with the referenced point as selected for central meridian.Creating any point as central meridian means that the scale factor of that particular value will be taken as 1, with reference to this all the other scale factors will change automatically. you need to just identify a point in your surveyed data, that which is very close to 1 and then select that point for central meridian

    good question?Ā 

    • Seeking Employment

      why do you want to use a scale factor of 1.0000000?

      • Land Surveyor

        Because i need one scale factor for all bench mark. Now i have Ex: 0.998899 between BM1 and BM2, ButĀ between BM4 and BM5 i have the 0.9981999

    Use a digital level if at all possible

      Thank you Mi link for your reply, but actually i don't have any problem with Leveling to use a digital level.

      My problem is in Scale Factor.

      Please see the reply at the top for Mr.Cavell.

      Best Regards

    Dear Mr. Asgar,

    I suspect it is due to your choosing a projection and reading a shown distance along a line.

    When I inverse between two points TBC produces two distances. One along the ellipsoid and one along the ground (mean height of two points).

    One place to check your data is online at the NGS website geodetic tools. There are Inverse,Ā Forward, Inverse3D, and Forward3D. It might help you discover the source of your question.

    Best wishes,

    JAC

How to use Forums
Our forums on Land Surveyors United are here to be used as much for finding help with problems in the field as the are for you to express your opinions on anything that has to do with land surveying in general. Feel free to share anything that is on your mind, as long as it isn't meant to damage another member's reputation. Please keep it clean and help insure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of being part of a community that grows together.

We are committed to allowing freedom of expression for all of our members, and that includes maintaining a safe space for people with opposing views to express themselves. We get posts from all over the country and even the globe, so needless to say, people come with different viewpoints on lad surveying practices and processes. We see this diversity and variety as a real strength-- dialogue and debate are an integral part of the educational process, as well as an important tool in exploring different sides of complex issues.

All Community Hubs inside the community have their own forum for asking specific questions to other surveyors, by location, equipment type, etc.
