The aim of the invention is to determine the actual position and/or actual orientation of a measuring appliance ( 4 b). To this end, at least two reference points ( 2 b') lying in a spatial segment ( 5 ') scanned by a laser beam are detected and measured in terms of the distance thereinbetween and the inclination angle thereof. The actual position of the measuring appliance ( 4 b) can be deduced from the known positions of said reference points ( 2 b') arranged in a detectable manner and the associated distances and inclination angle thereof. The detection, monitoring and measuring of the reference points is carried out by the measuring appliance ( 4 b) in an automated manner, the measuring appliance ( 4 b) and specifically embodied elements associated with the reference points ( 2 b') forming a local positioning and/or orientation measuring system. The inventive method and corresponding devices enable measurements to be carried out in a problem-free and automated manner, even in areas that cannot be accessed by other measuring systems.
