Method and geodesic instrument for surveying at least one target

摘要

The method involves recording a visual image in a detection range using a camera having a CCD or CMOS image sensor which creates an image with a number of pixels. A geodata angle or distance measurement to the target is also carried out. In timed relation and preferably simultaneous with the recording of the visual image, a distance image is recorded as a spatial distribution of discrete distance points in the detection range. Independent claims are included for : (1) a geodata apparatus for carrying out the method; and (2) a computer program product for carrying out the method.
