Placing a model
In SiteVision, there are
-
Automatic. Automatic Placement requires high accuracy GNSS. It also requires and uses coordinate system information within the data, Trimble Connect project. or reads a Site Calibration file associated with the model.
-
Measured. Measured Placement requires high accuracy GNSS.
This method is useful when you want to use GNSS for precise outdoor positioning for a model that is not automatically placed correctly. For example, when there is no Site Calibration file assigned, when there is a difference between the source data and the GNSS on site, or you want to make an adjustment to the Automatic Placement.
-
Marker. This is the recommended method for model placement. It requires QR Markers to be created within the digital model at known locations. Physical printouts of the Markers are then placed in the corresponding real world location. Once this Marker network is established, the model can be accurately positioned by simply scanning the nearest Marker.
-
Manual. Placement is by using gestures on the screen and the augmented reality technology on your mobile device.
-
Component. A placement method designed for fabricators working on construction components in a workshop environment. This method includes a search feature to isolate a specific assembly or spool, along with a 3-point placement workflow to align the model to the physical component. This method is disabled by default; you can enable it in the Display Settings.
