Abstract
A geodetic surveying device has a sighting unit pivotable about two axes. The sighting unit defines a target direction in a coordinate system and has a camera for capturing a camera image substantially in the target direction. The device can display object data that is stored in a database with a respective position reference indicating a position in the coordinate system. The device includes a graphical output unit that displays the camera image and the object data. The device has a filter functionality for the object data, with dynamic filtering based on the current range of view and static filtering based on a user selectable or specifiable selection criterion. The filtered object data is displayed on the output unit with markings representing the object data conjointly with the camera image. The markings are displayed at a respective point in the camera image referenced by the position reference.
