“all it takes is a 3 point triangulation gps system. they use them in large commercial building projects like Casinos etc for the art work on the floor for tile and marble. pin point accuracy. And a lawn mower with auto pilot!!”
DGPS? Railroads, barges, Fleet vehicles and mega-farm field equipment all employ the technology. The Coast Guard runs it.
didnt know the exact term for it. the closest i’ve come to it is telling the General on the jobs I need bench marks pinned for yada yada page of the lobby... or particular room! come in the next day and see the nail pins sticking out of floor with an Orange circle spray painted around them!
half the lobby is cut off but this pic can give you an idea of what is involved. doing the math and layout going off other peoples work(Walls out of square etc) can be a nightmare! these cats come it and shoot and pin all the working points you need and they have fun doing it!! I did this lobby 10 years ago+-... all the 3/4 marble is water jet cut, but working points are still critical. you dont wanna find out you have to shift it all because it’s an 8th or a 1/4” out when half the floor is down!!
