Survey was done with a DistoX2 and Auriga (13 surveys were done if I remember but I haven't attached all of these). Most of the cave is made of boulders (énorme éboulis), probably from tectonic origin; so there are plenty of loops (it's a nightmare) and at least 5 or 6 levels. I haven't been working yet on the plan map but I guess it's not going to be a piece of cake (from a loop point of view). Sketches were done by hand to help me during the synthesis. I created an XVI file and I use it as background image.<br><br>I'm working on PC an my therion version is :<br><img border=0 width=188 height=206 style='width:1.9583in;height:2.1458in' id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01D79086.D64A9B30"><br><br>So my problem is the following (screenshots below): station 3.2 is unique but there are at least 2 side passages going to different locations of the caves (see screenshots 1a & 1b). During the survey, Auriga was displaying a unique 3.2 station and different paths (one going to 5.1, then 5.2 and the other one going to 3.11 then 3.16 and so on; see screenshot 3 below). But when exported from Auriga into a Therion format and then openned in Therion, I get two 3.2 shifted stations (scale is 1m x 1m), one for each path, as seen in the screenshot 2a.<br><br>Screen shot #1a (sketch: cross section & plan views)<br><img border=0 width=306 height=620 style='width:3.1875in;height:6.4583in' id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.png@01D79086.D64A9B30"><br><br><u>Screenshot 1b (sketch: cross section view)</u>:<br><br><img border=0 width=355 height=275 style='width:3.7013in;height:2.868in' id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image009.jpg@01D7908A.D75F69C0"><br><br>The 2 stations were surveyed at different times (but from the same station/point as stated earlier).<br><br>There are other stations with the same 'shift' problem (I'm only at the begining of the synthesis process). For instance, station 5.2 -which comes just after 3.2- is also shifted as seen on the screen shot #2b.<br><br>Is there something wrong I did ? Something I should do instead? <br><br>I've tried to "equate" stations 3.2 and 5.2 (I renamed them before inserting the equate in the survey: first 3.2 in survey #1 is kept as 3.2 but second 3.2 in survey #2 was renamed 3.2bis; same for 5.2). Station was shifted/merged of course but I was not able to shift my second 3.2 branch to the 1st one..<br><br>I have checked the very usefull "Therion by example", by Marco Corvi, in the <i>4.4.2 Loops in extended elevation</i> paragraph but I was not able to make it...<br><br>Am I clear enough in my explanations? <br><br><u>Screenshot 2a below:</u><br><br><img border=0 width=1024 height=560 style='width:10.6666in;height:5.8333in' id="Picture_x0020_4" src="cid:image005.png@01D79086.D64A9B30"><br><br><u>Screenshot 2b below:</u><br><img border=0 width=1094 height=737 style='width:11.3958in;height:7.6805in' id="Picture_x0020_5" src="cid:image006.png@01D79086.D64A9B30"><br><br>Why does Auriga is correctly displaying this sort of survey (see screenshot #3 below) and not Therion, by default I mean ?
