Export Conventional and GNSS Data from Infinity to STAR*NET

Infinity Release 4.3.1 can export Conventional and GNSS data to STAR*NET format.


This export solution offers capabilities that differ from the STAR*LeicaDBX converter and provides an alternate workflow:

  • Station IDs, Target heights etc can be edited in Infinity before export
  • Direction sets created from sets of angles will be merged into a single direction set for each occupation to better model the network and to reduce  how often incomplete sets of angles can affect your results.
  • Sets of angles "Training shots" will be included as input and grouped so they can be disabled if required.
  • Tilt corrected RTK GNSS can be exported directly to STAR*NET
  • Post Processed GNSS can be exported

The STAR*NET Export Option is currently available as a Localization download.  Follow these steps to start using this feature:
