What is OPUS Projects?
OPUS Projects is a web-based GPS processing and network adjustment package with access to simple visualization, management, and processing tools for multiple marks and multiple occupations. OPUS Projects is a natural extension of OPUS that allows engineers, surveyors, and other users to position campaign-style GPS observations (geodetic networks) with greater accuracy by combining them through multi-baseline processing and least-squares adjustments. Some of its advantages include:
· Data uploading and harvesting through OPUS
· Web-based data storage and access
· Processing and network adjustment using the NGS PAGES software suite.
· Data and solution visualization aids
· Coordinate results tied to the NSRS or to local constraints
· Limited support for bluebooking
OPUS Projects is a four step process with an optional fifth step:
1. Create the project
2. Upload data files and mark descriptions
3. Process sessions
4. Adjust the network
5. Publish to the NGS Integrated Database or IDB (Note that this step requires using the NGS Adjust program and following the remainder of the normal bluebooking process)
