Abstract

Embodiments provide for a method of determining a geospatial position of a point of interest (180) and a portable positioning device (100) thereof. In one embodiment, the method includes collecting data from a GNSS receiving unit (110) and data from at least one of an imaging device (130) and an inertial measurement unit (170), IMU, of the positioning device for a plurality of positions of the positioning device in the vicinity of the point of interest. The collected data is then transmitted to a data fusing processor (190) for determining orientations and positions of the positioning device for the plurality of positions in a global coordinate system. Further, the method includes obtaining a pointing input indicative of a position of the point of interest relative to the positioning device for at least one reference position of the positioning device. The pointing input is transmitted to the data fusing processor for identifying the point of interest and for determining the geospatialposition of the point of interest in the global coordinate system based on the determined orientations and positions of the positioning device in the global coordinate system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of positioning, and more particularly to methods for geospatial positioning and portable positioning devices adapted to obtain the geospatial location of a point of interest. The methods and positioning devices disclosed herein can provide three-dimensional geospatial locations of points of interest. Background technique [0002] Positioning involves the technique of determining the position of a person, object, or system on or near the surface of the Earth, that is, the technique of determining the coordinates (latitude, longitude, and altitude) of a place. Positioning may be of interest, for example, in the field of surveying techniques where the purpose is eg point-based determination of land positions or three-dimensional positions, using relative distances and angles between these points to build land maps. In such applications, the resulting land map will depend on the survey system, componen...
