Abstract

Disclosed is a base member for use with a plurality of interchangeable reference members. The base member is intended to be connected to an element of a scene and includes a first surface and a second surface, a hole adapted to receive a fastening member for connecting the base member to the element, and a connecting portion adapted to detachably connect a reference member to the base member. The base member also includes a cavity adapted to receive and hold an RFID member, which cavity is coaxial with the hole, connects the hole and the second surface and has a smallest diameter larger than the largest diameter of the hole. Also disclosed is an RFID member adapted to fit in the cavity of the base member to cover the hole in the base member.

Claims (20)

1. A base member ( 11 ) for use with a plurality of interchangeable reference members to create a 3D image of a scene ( 1 ) and to determine coordinates of said 3D image in a geodetic frame, which base member ( 11 ) is intended to be connected to an element ( 2 , 2 a - c ) of the scene ( 1 ), which base member ( 11 ) comprises a first surface ( 21 ) arranged to face the element ( 2 , 2 a - c ) and a second surface ( 22 ) arranged to face away from the element ( 2 , 2 a - c ); a hole ( 20 ) adapted to receive a fastening member for connecting said base member ( 11 ) to said element ( 2 , 2 a - c ); and a connecting portion ( 30 ) adapted to detachably connect a reference member to the base member ( 11 ), wherein the base member ( 11 ) comprises a cavity ( 24 ) adapted to receive and hold an RFID member ( 36 ), which cavity ( 24 ) is coaxial with the hole ( 20 ), connects the hole ( 20 ) and the second surface ( 22 ) and has a smallest diameter larger than the largest diameter of the hole ( 20 ).

2. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 1 , which base member ( 11 ) comprises at least one retaining means ( 31 ) for retaining the RFID member ( 36 ) in the cavity ( 24 ).

3. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 2 , wherein at least one retaining means ( 31 ) is an adhesive.

4. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 3 , wherein at least one retaining means is a snap fit element.

5. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 4 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

6. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 4 , wherein at least a part of the base member ( 11 ) comprises a magnetic material.

7. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 6 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

8. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 3 , wherein at least a part of the base member ( 11 ) comprises a magnetic material.

9. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 8 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

10. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 3 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

11. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 2 , wherein at least one retaining means is a snap fit element.

12. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 11 , wherein at least a part of the base member ( 11 ) comprises a magnetic material.

13. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 12 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

14. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 11 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

15. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 2 , wherein at least a part of the base member ( 11 ) comprises a magnetic material.

16. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 15 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

17. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 2 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

18. A base member ( 11 ) according to claim 1 , wherein at least a part of the base member ( 11 ) comprises a magnetic material.

19. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 18 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).

20. An RFID member ( 36 ) for use with a base member ( 11 ) according to claim 1 , which RFID member ( 36 ) comprises an RFID tag, wherein said RFID member ( 36 ) is adapted to fit in the cavity ( 24 ) of the base member ( 11 ) to cover the hole ( 20 ) in the base member ( 11 ).
