In some cases your field measurements contain both new detail points and new base points. You can import all measurements into one calculation project, however you can calculate both types of points separately. Doing this, you make sure that the detail point measurements do not impact base point calculation.
To calculate detail points and base points separately
- Import all measurements into one calculation project.
- In the Calculation Wizard, before starting step 3, Find Reference Points, deactivate the detail points.
- Continue with the calculation process: calculate, review results, apply corrections, recalculate, and distribute the base points.
- Copy the calculation project and continue to calculate the detail points.
- Select the copy of the project.
- In the Calculation Wizard, on the Task Overview, click step 3, Find Reference Points.
- Activate the detail points. Your new base points will now be used as fix points.
- Continue the process: calculate, review results, apply corrections, recalculate, and distribute the detail points.
