Stakeout procedures provide information in graphic, numeric and vocal format, to reach a point, an element or in general a particular position.

This chapter explains the commands and functions that are available in stakeout with GNSS and total stations.

There is a dedicated chapter regarding the Stakeout - GNSS and the Stakeout - TPS, with specific operations when working with a GNSS receiver or a total station.

A wide range of options and operative modes are available.
