Chapter 4 Options
The following is a sample “Positional Tolerance Check” report generated by the
example values set in the dialog. This report is created in the error propagation
section of the output listing.
The sample printout shows an “exhaustive” set of connections created for a small
survey network. The report indicates one tolerance check failure.
Positional Tolerance Check (FeetUS)
Allowable Tolerance = 0.0800 + 50 PPM

Check Sideshots – Selecting one or both of these options causes the program to
check sideshot names (those in SS lines) against main network station names and/or
other sideshot names, and issue warning or error messages when repeats are found.
If it is important that all main network station names in a project be unique, select
one of the “Network Matches” warning or error options. If it is important that all
sideshot names be unique, select one of the “Repeated Sideshot Names” warning or
error options. Note, however, that the checking of a very large number of sideshot
names (say 50,000) against each other to assure that all names are unique can slow
down processing time significantly!
GPS and Modeling Options
The remaining two option sections in the Project Options dialog are for settings features
available in the “Professional” edition. The GPS dialog provides for settings that control
GPS vector weighting, centering errors, transformation solving and many settings which
control the output content and appearance, and the Modeling dialog sets up Geoid and
Deflection modeling parameters.
If you are using STAR*NET-PRO, see the supplemental reference manual provided for
details on these option settings and other features.
