Spanish term or phrase: tomar los puntos en anillos
Hi everyone,

This is from a short text on land surveying. The client wants a universal English.

En caso de utilizarse el método Cinemático OTF con el equipo GPS, se debe tener la precaución de ir *tomando los puntos en anillos*, es decir, de tal forma que para terminar una sesión de toma de puntos se vuelva a medir un punto inicial ya medido y que nos sirve de referencia.

I'm having problems getting the wording right. Has anyone got any input? Thank you!

Explanation:
si consideras anillo como un circulo, imagínate un mapa, se toman lecturas de unos puntos concretos, en este caso el texto indica que es "de tal forma que se vuelva a medir un punto inicial"......habla de mediciones, me imagino que las mediciones son las que se toman en esos "puntos"....

espero que te ayude, aunque no sea el término concreto y exacto que buscabas....
