ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a spatial positioning and measurement system and a reference station for determining the instantaneous position of a dynamic reference point. The reference station emits a primary laser beam, determines the terrestrial position of a local reference point located on the reference station using a satellite based global positioning system and transmits the terrestrial position. The system detects the primary laser beam and the terrestrial position of the local reference point and responsively determining the terrestrial position of the dynamic reference point.
