Abstract
A surveying device for a coordinative position determination of a spatial point, wherein the surveying device comprises a camera which is fixedly mounted to a transmission unit in a way that its field-of-view moves with a targeting component. The surveying device further comprises an image evaluator, configured for automatically identifying corresponding image features in different images of the camera, wherein the corresponding image features represent reference points within the environment, and for a derivation of a spatial transformation parameter from a motion of the corresponding features, wherein the spatial transformation parameter provides for a determination of a difference of a spatial pose of a target axis of the surveying device between different distance measurements which correspond to different images.
