Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a method for minimizing the influence of disturbing signals during calculation of shape elements from coordinate points. An aim of the embodiments of the invention is to exclude the coordinates which are not to be locally assigned to the desired shaped element from the calculation of the shaped element. Said aim is achieved by combining compensation methods for calculating the desired type of shaped element with recognition methods for the same type of shaped element and using the recognition methods for filtering the coordinate points that are relevant for calculating the shaped element out of all input coordinate points.

Abstract: A method and an arrangement for carrying out an information flow and data flow in a geodetic instrument with image processing is disclosed. For this purpose, the data flow and information flow needed for image processing are distributed to a plurality of function modules which are arranged in the instrument and which comprise function groups and are carried out by means of these function groups. The arrangement includes a plurality of function groups which are arranged in the instrument at locations determined by its construction design. These function groups are composed of a plurality of function modules.

Abstract: A method for determining the edge position in color images, particularly for color transitions and intensity transitions is disclosed. In accordance with the method, the edge locations found in the total image or in individual color extracts coincide as closely as possible. Further, every color value F is changed to a vector representation {overscore (OFi)} proceeding from a selected point O of the color space F to determine the edge location K, and in that the transition from a color FL at the left of edge K to a color FR at the right of edge K is determined in order to determine the edge position along a given sampling direction by means of a method based on the vector representation {overscore (OFi)}. The method according to the invention is directed for determining the edge position in color images, particularly with detection of color transitions and intensity transitions in color space F.
