It is not necessary to survey any control points. Every Quantum RTLS installation provides its own coordinate system defined by the relative geometry of the anchor devices. Once a system is installed, this coordinate system never changes and will provide repeatable absolute positions with respect to the Quantum RTLS coordinate system.
In many cases, it is desirable to align the Quantum RTLS coordinate system with that of a building floorplan, for purposes of visualization. The Spatial Intelligence Platform provides simple tools to accomplish this by utilizing a Quantum RTLS mobile tracker and by selecting points on the building plan that correspond to its current location. More advanced coordinate alignment procedures are available too, to align the coordinate system with geographic coordinates, or to a building coordinate system.
