RE: Trimble S7 Drifting out of adjustment

Sorry I probably did a poor job of explaining the issue. Itƒ??s not drifting out of level while setup. The f1/f2 angles are drifting away from each o...

RE: Setting semi-permanent control

I came across this study measuring the accuracy of Trimble's RL measurement. ?ÿ ?ÿ ?ÿAs you can see, as soon as angle of incidence increases past...

RE: Setting semi-permanent control

You'd think. It's a 600 million dollar project over 4 years and there wasn't permanent pillars set throughout the site. I tried bringing it up and ge...

I think you misunderstood what I was getting at. RL isn't as accurate when your angle diverges from perpendicular regardless of how many times you sho...

RE: Setting semi-permanent control

These look fantastic. You've used these? Any idea at what distance the beam of RL would start causing issues? Either spilling over the sides of the fi...

RE: Setting semi-permanent control

The problem I see with using RL on this project is most of the time I'd be looking at a pretty oblique angle on the targets since it's a corridor. Obv...

RE: My Least squares adjustment needs fixin'

Maybe these facts may clear things up a bit... I have levelling notes from May of 2021 coming from #800 (elev = 900.687) to #822 (elev = 961.865m) t...

A big thank you to everyone that responded. I finally got it sorted out. So the geoid was affecting conventional data, vertical deflection modelling ...

I am unfamiliar with vertical deflection modelling, how does one go about finding the correct .vdf file? When I run the conventional on its own for a...

?ÿ Ok I'm getting closer. So when I check the box for geoid modelling when ONLY processing my GPS data, I get good results. When I add in my conventi...
