Interesting.

Do something fun: run the geometry of the set up through Star*Net’s pre-analysis routine.
Is pre-analysis available in Civil 3D? I talked with my boss today about the project. The purpose of the project is to look for a trend of horizontal movement. We have been monitoring the bridge for a little over a year now.
I've never seen or used it in anything other than Star*Net. Doesn't mean it doesn't exist in some other software program. I wouldn't perform a monitoring project without doing it first though.
Star*Net is not expensive in the scope of things, certainly not if you are talking about buying a 1" robot for kicks and giggles.
Running SN through all the included tutorials will make you a better surveyor, BTW.
