A surveying system can have a position determination unit for determining a target position in a defined coordinate system and have a mobile measurement unit for definition and/or position determination of measurement points in the coordinate system. The surveying system may include a control unit for allowing a user to control a surveying task of the surveying system in a surveying environment in order to acquire surveying task data that comprises spatial coordinates of at least one measurement point, the surveying system being adapted to capture and/or receive environment data of the surveying environment, the control unit comprising a processor unit, a data storage unit and an electronic graphical display for displaying a visualization of the surveying task data to the user, wherein the control unit is adapted to provide a virtual walkthrough functionality in a three-dimensional representation of the surveying environment.
