A geodetic surveying device, wherein the geodetic surveying device is configured for surveying retroreflective cooperative targets, the geodetic surveying device comprising a base, a telescope and a support. The geodetic surveying device further comprises a target recognition emitting unit, called ATR-illuminator, an target recognition sensor, called ATR-sensor, an angle encoder and a processing unit. The geodetic surveying device is configured to distinguish desired targets from undesired targets, wherein the geodetic surveying device further comprises a classification model, wherein the classification model is configured for classification of retroreflective targets generating spots, wherein the retroreflective targets are classified into desired targets and undesired targets, wherein the classification is carried out by applying the classification model on the spot.

Surveying device for improved target classification

Systems and methods for surveillance of a facility including facility elements. The system includes a central computing unit providing a digital model of the facility providing topological or logical or functional relationships of the facility elements, surveillance sensors adapted for surveillance of a plurality of the facility elements and for generation of surveillance data, communication means for transmitting data from the surveillance sensors to the central computing unit, and state derivation means configured to analyse the surveillance data and derive a state of a respective facility element. The central computing unit is configured to record a state pattern by combining states of at least one facility element based on at least one relationship of the facility element provided by the facility model, provide a state pattern critical-noncritical classification model which considers relationships provided by the facility model, and perform a criticality-classification based on the relationship.
