A low priority thought, or request.
One of the revolutionary things that Javad has done with the LS, is this concept of a new base station, name for every time it is used. This makes redundant coords for the base station, as many times as a job is visited, and worked on. Also, inside the LS, this group is understood as "unity" or one. So, the base, and all of its corresponding sideshots are a single entity.
Since the above is true, I'd like to be able to view this in acad.
So, a little utility that draws lines from the base, to all of the corresponding sideshots, for that session, would be great. And, to be able to make these lines, export theses lines, and delete these lines would be good.
Some jobs are in cities. Some jobs are simply "ongoing". We do a job, and another, and we can wind up with several hundred surveys, all from 5 base stations, spread over a range of 25 square miles.
How I'd use this, would be after each job is completed, export these radial shots into acad, and then turn off this layer. (For most Cogo) But, any time I need to review a job, turn it on, and see which base station was used to make that particular shot.
Base stations get destroyed. New ones get made, and sometimes kids vandalize a base nail, or monument. The purpose of these radial lines, would be to help keep up with stuff. Anybody else think this is a good idea?
For "trajectory" a radial line, base to first, and base to last point in trajectory would be adequate.
