Fabricate Observations

Converts a group of constructed points into measured targets by adding fabricated observations to the points.

 

Input Arguments

 

0

Collection Instrument ID

Instrument to shoot

The instrument to measure the specified points.

1

Collection Object Name

Group name to shoot

The group of constructed points for which to fabricate observations.

2

Boolean

Introduce instrument error?

True - induces a small random error based on the

instruments current uncertainty settings, simulat- ing real life measurements.

3

Boolean

Limit Distance?

True - limits the fabrication to only points within the Min and Max distances

4

Double

Min Distance

Min distance used to limit measurement fabrica-

tion when Limit Distance is true.

5

Double

Max Distance

Max distance used to limit measurement fabrica- tion when Limit Distance is true

 

Return Arguments

None.

 

Returned Status

 

SUCCESS

The observations were fabricated successfully.

FAILURE

The instrument or group was not found.

 

Remarks

Random Error generation is only available for polar instruments (Trackers and Total Stations for example). PCMM arms and photogrammetry systems for example are not included in this operation.
