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 ...

Just to be clear: this is a LS with no LS Plus or RTPK upgrades enabled?

It's a regional thing. Some areas would say 14 chains to the section line, others would say 14 chains more or less to the section line. My theory as t...

From personal experience... Probably. Maybe. My hours got reduced to 0 about 2 weeks ago, and I got told it would last for 2-3 months. Speaking of whi...

Moe you're supposed to come up with a creative "humble brag," not tell the truth...

I can see what you're getting at Moe, but I somewhat disagree regarding redundancy in a single observation with 2 bases- mostly due to me being a peda...

Velcro strip is for holding the pocket open, usually.

How can you prove that the coordinates & distances in your CAD file are "ground" values? Unless you're stating the values you pick off of CAD do n...
