Measuring system and method for new point determination

The geodetic measuring system (1) comprises a reference component, which defines a reference point. The absolute position of the reference point is known, and a new-point determination component, which derives a relative new-point position (2). The mutual relative reference information between the reference component and the new-point determination component is derived, particularly for the purpose of referencing corresponding to the reference-point position. The measuring system has an automotive, unmanned, controllable air vehicle (50). Independent claims are included for the following: (1) a geodetic reference method involves defining a reference point; and (2) a computer program product comprises a machine readable carrier.
