Abstract

Current surveying and spatial information technology incorporates information and communication technology and is user friendly. However, it is not convenient to use in the field because a connection to a computer, such as a laptop, tablet PC, or desktop PC, is needed to obtain the survey results and the coordinates of the surveyed points. To solve this problem, we developed an app that can display surveyed data on a map and the current survey results through a connection between a total station and smartphone using a Bluetooth wireless communication device. The app allows users to perform field work simultaneously with office work in the field, because it consists of Bluetooth, closed traverse survey, current status survey, and coordinate conversion modules. The proposed app should increase user convenience and the operational capability of the total station in the field.

최근 측량 및 지형 공간정보 분야의 기술들은 정보통신기술 발달로 사용자 친화적인 기술로 발전하고 있다. 그러나 현장에서 측량성과와 측량한 지점의 좌표를 알기 위해서는 노트북, 태블릿 PC 및 테스크톱 PC 등의 보조 장치와 토탈스테이션을 연결하여 관측 데이터를 얻어야 하는 불편함이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 토탈스테이션과 스마트폰 간의 블루투스 무선 통신을 통하여 현황측량이 가능하며, 실시간으로 측정된 데이터를 인터넷 지도에 맵핑하고, 측량성과를 나타낼 수 있는 앱을 개발하였다. 개발된 앱은 블루투스 모듈, 트래버스측량 모듈, 현황측량 모듈, 그리고 좌표변환 모듈로 구성되어 있으며 현장에서 외업과 내업을 동시에 수행할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구는 현장에서의 토탈스테이션의 운용 능력과 사용자의 편의성을 향상시키는데 크게 기여할 것으로 사료된다.
