I have a file, that runs about 5 miles x 6 miles. It has over 5000 coords. It has a localize in it. There is a 7.3 foot bust in it. It seems that the attachment, of the 2 points, where the localize is attached, came apart, for a while. Then, Javad installed some sort of a sequence to look for this and fix it. So, Now it seems it fixed itself. I have over 80 base occupations in this area, with about 15 or so base sites. So, now about 1/2 way through this file, I find the office coords differ by 7.3 feet.
What happened, is I clicked the localize button (Coord System), and it spent some time, and said "updated localize due to coords have changed".
So, IF you have a localize, and you load an old file, press that localize button, (Coord System) to discover and confirm that they are properly attached.
Now, this file was started in the LS over 5 yrs ago. and has been through all the software changes.
I will be spending a couple days, to uncover the extents of my liability.
Suggest:
Put a sequence into the software, that checks to see that things have not "Fallen apart", upon startup, and puts a splash on the screen that fixes it.
Have I gotten it wrong? I am making educated guesses here. I am NOT privy to what all is going on in the LS.
Now, I am thinking about HOW to fix this. Is it in the MIDDLE of a survey?
It's serious enough, that this is important to all of us.
As best as I can tell, about 100 coordinates have been affected.
I am not sure of that. I will have to carefully update the coords in the Carlson file. The extents of this problem are not totally contained yet.
Anyway, check things.
