Alignments Tab Index

Alignments should be made on an instrument basis whenever possible. Because instruments, their measurements and associated objects move as a unit this is the most effective method. An instrument can be located several ways. The basic instrument location methods can be found under Instrument>Locate or right-click an instrument and select Locate.

The Alignments Tab is organized based upon the type of measurement data used for the alignment and the complexity.

 

Points Alignments

These are alignments specifically for individual point based measurements.

 

Feature Alignments

These are alignments that use features for the alignment rather than the contributing points directly.

 

Cloud & Mesh Alignments

These are alignments for Point Clouds and Meshes that are optimized for a very large number of individual cloud points.

 

Alignment Optimization

These tools are the most powerful alignment tools in the industry for dialing in an alignment as needed.

 

Network Alignments

These tools provide solutions for a set of instruments or network. They also provide access to uncertainty computations.
