THREE-DIMENSIONAL DESIGN COORDINATES CALCULATING METHOD, AND AUTOMATIC SURVEYING SYSTEM

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a three-dimensional design coordinates creating method and automatic surveying system that reduce work load on a surveyor, can perform further accurate surveying, and can visually confirm a surveyed position. SOLUTION: Using plane surface linear data of a shaped product, vertical section linear data, and standard transverse section shape data, a three-dimensional shape data creating device 1 creates three-dimensional shape data of the shaped product. Then, image data taken by a survey machine 2 are transmitted to a survey data processing device 3, the survey data processing device 3 creates region corresponding three-dimensional shape data of the shaped product as an object from the three-dimensional shape data created by the three-dimensional shape data creating device 1, analyses the image data transmitted from the survey machine 1, matches the region corresponding three-dimensional shape data with the image data, and displays it on a display section 31 with a three-dimensional shape data display performing section 373b.
