I mean… what’s 200m between friends?
In a similar vein if my PC has to stake on the fly… my standing instructions are to generally RTK 3 control points for 3-5’ a piece, and then resectio...
Ignorance, probably.
@thebionicman That’s fair- I remember having similar experiences with CRTN… apparently there’s been improvements as of late but I’m not in state an...
@norman-oklahoma I would further expand on that and highlight how locked down centerline control is expected to be in Southern California, especial...
Recent example of two 5’ observations under full canopy, visited this past weekend (20 hours apart, rover facing opposite directions for each observat...
Why not both? Set up a static-only base locally, and collect RTK-logging when using a network rover… post process the rover logging against your local...
If your field crew booked their traverse you could see if you could integrate that... but you might be getting into Star*Net territory if they didn't ...
If that's the case then yes I'd 100% agree that you shouldn't be using calibrations unless in specific circumstances... My current employer does not (...
@olemanriver sounds like you just need to run a transformation (as many points as possible) and let TBC wiggle the CSF in for you. No need to shoot th...
If you stumped PM me... I can take a whack at it.
My personal stance is "field calibrations" are for searching only, and "office calibrations" are the ONLY calibrations to use for literally anything e...
When I hit situations like this I'd chuck the calibration, run a min-constrain LSA in grid (since your coordinates are pseudo grid it's good enough to...
For sure. I've run time-dependent transformations through TBC with a couple of my longer-spanning networks (~10-20 years on average), and have had fan...
@norman-oklahoma In my opinion it doesn't matter what you deem to be the god (or gods) of your control network, so long as you thoroughly document it....
@john-putnam I'm sure this is probably a thing, so I'll take your word for it. You could also get an encroachment permit from CALTRANS, which is what ...
@wendell this smells like an absolute fishing expedition- pretty much the same post was posted at about the same time (except from the buyer's POV) on...
@ field-dog With monitoring we are generally more interested in accuracy (i.e. the determining the "true location" of something right now versus your ...
There is a major league difference between reporting to the nearest 0.001' and reporting accuracies to the nearest 0.001', and from what I see a major...
Corner records can be filed if there aren't any ROS triggers in play (i.e. 8762). People like to point at 8765(d), which states a ROS is not required ...
