Grid logging screen
Using the map screen to
navigate on a grid fea-
ture
Points not visited yet
are represented as hol-
low squares. Visited
points are changed to
full squares.
Every time you record a
description, the
receiver attaches the
receiver's coordinates
to the record - not the
position of the grid
waypoint.
Therefore, make sure that you are standing on the lower
left corner of the grid you want to record.
You will now see the feature attribute screen. You record
your observations or measurements as you would for any
point feature.
- Navigating to the next grid point
When you have finished recording the first point feature,
you can select Next Pt. at the bottom left of the screen to
navigate to the next grid point. Press the NAV button until
the Map screen is displayed. This screen will guide you to
this point. The receiver has already calculated the coordi-
nates of each of the grid points and displays them on the
map screen. When you arrive at the next grid point, the
receiver will prompt you to record another point feature. It
will then display the feature attribute screen where you
can record the next observation or measurement.
You do not have to use the automatic navigation feature of
the Grid Mapping Utility. You can move the map cursor to
any of the grid points and navigate to them with any navi-
gation screen. If you are unable to physically occupy the
grid point, if it's within a building, canyon, highway, etc.,
just get as close as you can to the waypoint or ignore it
altogether.
- Closing the grid feature
When you have occupied as many of the grid points as you
can and have recorded the necessary observations and
measurements at each, you may close the grid feature by
highlighting the Close button instead of the Next Pt. button.
This returns you to the New Feature selection screen
where you may log data to another point, line, area or grid
feature or close the job using the MENU button.
