[Therion] FW: Loch and Splay shots

I too am just getting into paperless survey with the distoX.  I understand
that Loch does not yet produce passage walls from splay shots.

The generic tubes you are getting are what you get when Loch thinks there is
no LRUD data, so that the model at least looks a bit like a cave I guess.

 

When you cannot see the splays, use Tools.Scene menu item, select centreline
and tick splays, as below if you can see the enclosed pictures.  You can
make other 'scene' changes here as well.

 

In the Loch screenshot below, the background passage has LRUD data (surveyed
the paper way), and the foreground has only splay shots (paperless survey).
Both passages have a plan drawing, and so the plan outline of the passages
is mimicked in the Loch model.

 

For the paperless survey the passage height is a generic value that Loch
determines, because it can not use the splay shots yet (they can be seen
poking out of the top of the passage).



I presume that if this paperless survey thing 'takes off', then passage wall
generation from splay shots will be developed.
