Once you're set up, you can stake points or collect data with the press of a single key. Turn elevations on when you shoot your two control points, and both points can then be meaned or you may choose which point to use to compute the elevation of your occupied point. Now with SMI's CVCE Elite Series - version 6 you can easily design a spiral. All you need is a point on the back tangent, the PI point, a point on the forward tangent, the simple curve radius and the two spiral lengths. SMI computes and stores the TS and ST points.
Output can be angle right, azimuth, bearing, or coordinates.
With notes or elevations selected, the appropriate data is displayed with every shot. A sunshot program lets you use the instrument to collect, back-sight circle reading, and circle to the sun. SMI's transformation program allows translation, rotation, changing elevation or scaling a set of points. With its power and flexibility, CVCE is the preferred choice for construction fieldwork. Usually ships in 3-4 business days.
