Abstract
An inventive precision pinpoint tracking method and system is provided for devices that provide spot location measurements of objects. Embodiments of the location measuring device have a RF antenna, a tracking module in electrical communication with the RF antenna, and a tilt-compensated (TC) compass. In embodiments of the location measuring device, a measuring tip is offset at a distal end from the tracking module and the RF antenna is located at the proximal end of the tracking module. In embodiments, the TC compass provides data to calculate a translation of the position of the measuring tip with respect to the RF antenna to enable spot measurements of locations of a target object.
