3 Using LandMark Mobile 20 Introduction and Operation 24 GPS Status Screen 31 Navigation Screen 34 Configuration Screen 48 Waypoint Screen
Introduction and Operation After LandMark Mobile is installed, you can operate it in the field or office. This chapter describes the operation, screens, and specific features of the program. To begin using LandMark Mobile, from the Today screen select Start | Programs | LandMark Mobile icon. A splash screen displaying LandMark Mobile A GPS Receiver Utility and the version number are displayed for two seconds. The program opens to one the following two screens.
Keyboard Options To navigate through LandMark Mobile, use a stylus with the touch screen. You may also use the circular directional key located in the center of the keyboard for limited navigation within each action screen. Menu The Menu option is available on the GPS, Navigation, and Waypoint screen. Tap on Menu to activate the following drop-down menu.
About The About option opens a pop-up screen that displays the LandMark Mobile version number and date the version was released. Note: Landscape display screen shots are used through the rest of this document. Portrait displays will contain the same basic content in a slightly different layout. GPS Connect/ GPS Disconnect This option connects or disconnects the GPS receiver through a Bluetooth connection.
Tools Selecting tools opens the following menu which allows the user to convert a waypoint file or jump to the mark point screen. We recommend that if you need to convert a waypoint file, that you do so only after the waypoint file is completed and all necessary data is collected. Screens Tap on Screens to activate the following drop-down menu. Note: These screens and the mark point may also be accessed by tapping on the icons located in the task bar. GPS Tapping on the GPS option opens the GPS screen.
Exit The Exit option exits out of the LandMark Mobile program. After selecting Exit you receive the following confirmation screen: Tap on Yes to continue to Exit out of LandMark Mobile or tap on No to cancel the Exit process. GPS Status Screen The GPS status screen displays a skyplot that shows the position of each satellite transmitting GPS data. This screen also helps you determine how accurate the GPS readings are.
inner circle represents the area above you, this circle has a 60 degree incline from the outer circle. When a satellite rises above the horizon, the GPS receiver can then receive a positioning signal from the satellite. The satellite then appears in the skyplot section of the GPS screen. GPS readings are more accurate when the satellites are more scattered across the sky. The right side of the GPS status screen displays a bar graph showing the relative satellite signal strengths.
PDOP PDOP (Position Dilution of Precision) is based on the geometric arrangement of satellites, and indicates the quality of GPS readings. Optimal PDOP occurs when one satellite is directly overhead and three or more others are evenly spaced out over the horizon. A PDOP less than 4 gives the best accuracy, between 4 and 8 is acceptable, and greater than 8 is poor. EHE EHE (Estimated Horizontal Error) indicates the amount of receiver horizontal position uncertainty.
Mode Meaning 3D RTK Real-Time Kinematic; measure lat/long/height above WGS-84 datum to within a few centimeters. 2D RTK Real-Time Kinematic; measure lat/long WGS-84 datum. Note: Depending on the quality of receiver and the receiver capabilities, different messages are displayed. Using 3D Diff or 2D Diff Mode The 3D Diff or 2D Diff mode is displayed when the receiver is receiving real-time differential corrections from WAAS, beacon, base station, Omnistar, etc.
No New Data No New Data indicates that the COM has been set up right, and the GPS is sending data properly, but the data string is not in a readable format (i.e. data not in NMEA format). COM Discnt COM Discnt (disconnect) indicates that the program tried to open the specified COM in Configurations, but it could not open it. Check the configurations for the right COM port, or that the receiver has been disconnected by operator.
Displayed on the right side of the dialog box are the following diagnostics and information headings: sv/used Quality 2D/3D W1/W2 Below each heading is a number(s) displaying specific data recieved. Sv/used The sv/used heading means Satellites in view/ number being used in fix. The numbers 12/11 are displayed in the example above. 12 = number of satellites in view 11 = number of satellites being used to establish GPS fix Quality The Quality heading shows the quality of your GPS fix.
displays a dialog box showing the SV number, azimuth, elevation, signal to noise ratio, and use status of all GPS satellites in view. When WAAS satellites are visible, they are shown on Satellite Details screen. Note: The WAAS satellite information may or may not be shown due to manufacturer’s specifications. If the receiver is not WAAS enabled then no WAAS info is received. Some receivers will only track one satellite while others may track two.
Used Used is the status of the satellite’s signal in calculating the current location. If the satellite signal is picked up by the receiver, but the signal is not strong enough, or if the satellite is not beneficial to use due to poor geometric arrangement, it is not used for position calculation. Yes indicates that the satellite’s data is being used to calculate your position. No indicates that the satellite’s data is not being used to calculate your position.
The Navigation screen displays the following features, discussed later in this section: From To Compass Here -> TO FROM -> TO Quality Mag Dec From The From box displays the waypoint that is the starting point you intend to begin traveling from. The option Here is the current position. To The To box displays the waypoint that is the ending point. This point is your destination point. Waypoint File Waypoint files are files consisting of points that have been saved and labeled.
Compass The compass is shown on the left side of the screen. The compass rotates to show the direction of travel when you start moving. It is updated when your speed is greater than 0.5 km/hr (0.31 mph). The arrow is fixed and always points toward the To location and assumes the direction of travel is the top of the screen. The compass body rotates to show the current direction of travel, as long as you are moving. When you stop, the top of the compass points to the north.
The From -> To section is updated even without receiving GPS signal. Once the From and To waypoints are selected, the values in the From -> To section do not change. Distance The Distance box displays the distance in current units (metric or standard) from the From location to the To location. The distance converts to miles or km when the distance reads high enough that it applies. Azimuth The Azimuth box displays the compass heading in degrees from the From location to the To location.
The Configuration screen contains seven tabs, GPS, File, Data, Units, Mask, HotKeys, and Keyboard. This section covers the options available in each one of these tabs. To use the Configuration screen via the keyboard, use the tab keys (forward or back tab), or the circular navigation key. To exit the Configuration screen, tap OK in the top right hand corner of the screen, which will also automatically save all your configuration changes.
Port The Port field allows you to select the communication port you are using. LandMark Mobile currently supports communication ports COM1 through COM10. Note: If you are using a serial Holux receiver, you need to use COM1 and check the DTR option. 1. To set the correct port for GPS communication use the stylus to tap the down arrow next to the Port box to access the dropdown menu and tap on the desired COM Port. 2. Close the Configuration screen by tapping on OK in the top right corner of the screen.
Parity, Data Bits, Stop Bits As with Baud rate, the communication parameters for Parity, Data Bits, and Stop Bits must be those used by the receiver. Parity, Data Bits, and Stop Bits are specified by the GPS receiver’s manual. Please see the user’s manual for these values and set them appropriately. DTR The DTR (Data Terminal Ready) option provides a 5V power supply on COM1 (only). It is used when an external GPS receiver requires power from the Field PC.
using the Mark Point screen (explained in detail later in this chapter), a file named dtex.txt is overwritten or created in the location you have specified in the File tab. When the Export button is tapped in the Mark Point screen, your last active application opens automatically. Press Enter or type a command to read the modified dtex.txt file and obtain the GPS data. See the Mark Key section later in this chapter for further details on Mark Point screen.
a waypoint. Point averaging averages the positions collected from the specified number of averaging points to calculate the point average value. Each new position is included in the running average until the specified number of positions to calculate the overall average are accumulated. Point Averaging is used when the Mark Point screen is open. Note: Masked position information is not included in the average. See the Mask Tab section in this chapter for more information.
Units Tab The Units tab is used to format data. For example, say that your data needs to be calculated in feet, with magnetic declination set, in UTM scale, and mean sea level altitude reference set. Set up all of these configurations in the Units tab. Selected settings are also used in displayed data for Keyboard Wedge and Memory Exchange. Datum The Datum option is a set of constants used for calculating coordinates on earth. A datum is used by the GPS to reference a coordinate on the earth’s surface.
Display Option Distance Units Speed Units Feet Feet (changes to miles at 13,000 ft.) Miles per hour Meters Meters (changes to kilo- Kilometers per hour meters at 1500 m) Heading The Heading option allows you to set the display compass readings to the following: True Auto Mag (automatic magnetic declination) Manual Mag (manual magnetic declination) WMM 2K (World Magnetic Model 2005) Declination is the angle formed between magnetic north and true north from the GPS receiver’s location.
The World Magnetic Model Epoch 2000 (WMM-2000 or WMM 2K) is a generated model used to configure and display magnetic north in GPS units. The World Magnetic Model coefficients are produced and distributed by the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (formerly National Imagery Mapping Agency), Washington, D.C. The model, associated software, and documentation are distributed by NGDC on behalf of NGA. The model is produced at 5-year intervals.
Mask Tab The Mask tab is used to set the GPS signal masking parameters while marking waypoints. Only those GPS fixes that meet the specified criteria are used in averaging a waypoint. In essence, inaccurate GPS positions are screened with this feature. The check boxes are used to enable or disable specific masking features. The edit boxes on the right of the check boxes are used to specify the mask value.
Min Sat Elevation Select Min Sat Elevation (Minimum Satellite Elevation) and specify the minimum elevation in the box to the left. Satellites that are equal to or greater than the elevation value entered are included in the waypoint averaging. Min Sat SNR Select Min Sat SNR (Minimum Satellite Signal to Noise Ratio). A higher SNR is a better reading. A SNR value less than 4 is considered unusable. SNR values above the specified value are valid.
The following are the keys that can be used for the Wedge or Mark Key on the Allegro MX. Home (F1) Left Soft Key (F2) Menu Key (F3) Right Soft Key (F4) OK (F5) Insert (Ins) Delete (Del) Mark Key Select a Mark Key from the drop-down menu. Whenever that key is pressed it brings up the Mark Point screen. Wedge Key Select a Wedge Key from the drop-down menu. Whenever that key is pressed, it sends the GPS position into another active application.
are recorded. You can also set up carriage returns and tabs for the data sent. The Keyboard specifications work for any other applications being used. Note: As an example, Excel Mobile is the application used to explain the Keyboard functions. Available Data Items Available Data Items are listed options for how and what data are transferred. Select data items by highlighting and then tapping the arrow button between the Available Data Items box and the Selected Data Items box.
U The U (up) button moves a Selected Data Item entry up, switching places with the item above it. D The D (down) button moves a Selected Data Item down, switching places with the item below it. Del The Del (delete) button deletes the item highlighted in the Selected Data Item box. Internal Select one of the Internal options to split your whole data string into smaller segments. One data string includes what you have specified in the Selected Data Items box display.
Waypoint Screen (Way Pts) Use the Waypoint screen to display and manage the contents of the currently selected waypoint file. The available functions allow for marking points, editing points, and deleting points from a waypoint file. To display the Waypoint screen, complete one of the following steps: Tap on the Waypoint icon on the task bar. Tap on Menu | Select Screens | Way Pts. Before working in the waypoint screen, you need to create or open a waypoint file. Do this by using the File menu.
When New is tapped, a pop-up screen appears. Change the Waypoint ID and fill in latitude, longitude, and elevation. The units format depends on what is selected in the configurations screen. (See Configuration instruction to change Units format.) Waypoint # Waypoint # is the number assigned by LandMark Mobile. All points in a waypoint file are numbered consecutively. Waypoint ID Waypoint ID is the point name that you give to a point. Latitude Latitude shows the waypoint latitude.
Edit Tap Edit to edit the selected waypoint. When Edit is selected, the Waypoint pop-up screen is displayed. The exact format of the waypoint screen depends on the Units format selected. (See Configurations instructions to change Units format.) Note: A recommended practice is not to edit a waypoint very many times when using a datum other than WGS-84. The conversion between datums that occurs internally can potentially introduce errors into the original GPS data.
Current GPS The top of the screen shows Current GPS readings. Each new GPS fix from the GPS receiver updates the location, elevation, quality, PDOP, and EHE values while the Mark Point screen is active. Waypoint # The Waypoint 1 (the number varies depending on the waypoint file being used) box displays the Waypoint file you are currently using. Offset Tapping on the Offset button opens the Offset Input screen.
to mark is inaccessible (i.e. like a power pole behind a fence or an island in a lake), when the GPS signal at a desired point is unavailable (it may be blocked), or when gathering points from a vehicle without having to get out of the vehicle. To use the Mark Point Offset function, complete the following steps: 1. Fill in the Distance from where your current location is to the point you are wanting to save. 2. Fill in the Direction in degrees that the new point is located. 3.
Store WPT The Store WPT (Store Waypoint) button is used to store an average waypoint in the current waypoint file. If the Store WPT button is pressed before the Average button (if the button is available), the averaging process begins automatically and continues until all points for the average have been obtained. After the point is averaged, it is stored in the waypoint file. In both cases, after the averaged waypoint is stored, the Mark Point screen closes.
