Point manager

Point manager enables you to easily review observations and the best point and all duplicate points for a selected point.

To open Point manager, tap and select Job data / Point manager or tap and select Point manager from the Favorites list. The Point manager screen shows a tabulated tree structure of all points and observations in the job database and linked files.

Using Point manager you can easily edit:

  • Target and antenna heights (single or multiple)
  • Point names
  • Point coordinates
  • Codes (single or multiple)
  • Descriptions (single or multiple)
  • Notes

By default, points are listed by name. When there are duplicate points of the same name, the best point always appears first. All occurrences of points of the same name, including the best point, appear in a list below the best point.

When the data is in the Target height view, all observations are listed in the order that they occur in the database.

To view more information about a point, you can:

  • Tap + to expand the point tree list and reveal all associated points and observations. Expand the subtree to view individual point information. These records can include the point coordinates, observations, antenna or target details, and quality control records.
  • Tap a point, or select it and tap Details to open the same point details form as seen in Review job. This allows you to edit information such as the point code and attributes.

To change the format of the indented coordinates or the observations that appear when you expand the point tree, tap the coordinates or observations displayed, or highlight them and press the space key. In the list that appears, select the new data view. This allows you to review the raw conventional or GNSS observations and the Grid coordinates at the same time.

To view additional columns, tap Display and select the required columns.

To sort data by column value, tap the column header.

To include deleted points in the displayed information, tap Options and then select Display deleted points. (In portrait mode, swipe right to left along the row of softkeys to view the Options softkey.)

To filter data by wildcard search, tap. See To filter data using wildcard search.

When you edit point records in Point manager, the software automatically inserts notes into the job database to record what was edited, the original data, and the time of the edit. You can view the edited records and notes in Review job.

To enter a note or change an existing note, tap the Note field. Enter the note details and then tap Accept.
