Validate measurements For the selected measurements:
  • Perform the selected adjustment
  • Reduce the measurements
Note:
  • Coordinates and objects are not updated in the model view.

Nodes

The following Measurements nodes display:

Status Symbols

Status symbols may display near the Measurements nodes.

Status Description
Processed Observations have not been processed.
Processed Observations have been successfully processed and the resultant coordinates have been used to update the vertex.
Modified An observation has been modified and it is recommended that the observations are re processed.
Error Observations has been processed however errors were detected in the data.
Warning Observation have been processed however a tolerance has been exceeded.
  • Only one status symbol is displayed per measurement node. Resolving a Modified symbol may expose a Error or Warning symbol.
Notes
  • Deleting a configuration item results in any measurements linked to the item also being deleted.
  • Selecting an instrument node in the left-hand pane will display the related data in the right-hand pane.
  • Expand an instrument node in the left-hand pane to display measurements.
  • The selection in the left-hand-pane will determine the observations included in the data processing.
  • Manual data input of total stations data requires new Total Stations, Reflectors and Field Parties in the Configuration node.
  • Manual data input of level data requires new Levels, Staves and Field Parties in the Configuration node.
  • Results must be processed (not simply validated) to resolve Modified status symbols as a validation does not apply the changes.
