Summary: See below

Description: I would like the survey module supports the automatic calculation of "float station" (translated from the French word "free standing") or "resection" of 2 points or more.
Resection is a method of measurement often used by surveyors.

How Used: When measuring, the surveyor places his total station anywhere. It measures two known reference points or more (with angles and distances). Next it measures the survey points.

No calculation is done on land, only the observations are recorded.
When importing field book, coordinates of these survey station points should be calculated automatically, then the coordinates of points measured.

Feature Affinity: Survey
