Introduction For additional visual reference when working with the GeoCue Map View, you can add layers in the Map View that are ‘mapping’ to a Web Mapping Service. It is often the case that you will continually reuse a small set of WMS layers within your GeoCue projects. To make this easy to set-up, we…
Quality control and assurance checks should be applicable for various acquisition scenarios so as to not limit the methods that a data provider may use to obtain usable data. In that regard, some providers use collection methods that require multiple overlapping swaths in order to adhere to the project requirements. In other cases, simple side…
A Conflation Task defines a set of procedures for digitizing features that extract elevations from a LIDAR surface. A conflation task can be configured to digitize points, polylines, and/or polygon features. The Conflation Method assigned to the conflation task defines how elevations are populated onto the geometry for each feature. LP360 Default Conflation Tasks Summarize Z…
LP360 always uses a scale of 0.001 when exporting LAS files so as never to degrade the precision of the data. There is no user option like there is in TerraScan or GeoCue to specify the desired resolution and the mechanism that allows LP360 to load “unlimited” LIDAR prevents it from knowing the precision of all of…
Symptom In the ArcGIS extension dialog the LP360 extension is checked, but says “no license”. The LP360 toolbar indicates the extension is not licensed either as the red plus symbol is not activated. Checking LP360 License Administrator shows a licenses is available. Probable Resolution Try toggling the LP360 extension on/off and that should then check…
Versions of OpenGL Supported in LP360 and Topolyst 2016: Previous versions of LP360 supported OpenGL 1.0 only. OpenGL 1.0 was released on Windows in 1994. Both the LP360 standalone and Topolyst products now support two versions of OpenGL, OpenGL 4.4, or better if available, and OpenGL 1.1 are supported for these two products. The LP360 for…
Configuring a Table of Contents (TOC), especially for a many layered project, can be quite time consuming. In addition, there are many circumstances under which you would like to pre-configure an arrangement of the TOC for a select class of users (for example, a simple layout for QC). GeoCue assists with this need by allowing…
Once GeoCue projects have been completed and the physical project data is no longer required, the data can be removed from the server system using typical IT backup procedures (for instance backing the data up on tapes). It is always recommended that the GeoCue Project Folder layout is copied identical during the backup process. Keeping…
The following workflow and accompanying video describes the suggested workflow for digitizing breaklines around islands within LP360. Creating Island Breaklines: Workflow Configure a conflation task for the lake or main waterbody that the island resides within. Set up a conflation method for the conflation task This is dependent upon user specifications, the example in the video chooses…
About Pyramiding Files Pyramiding is used to improve display performance for large files. This is similar to the way reduced resolution overviews work. When the Pyramid checkbox is selected, a pyramid file (.QVR) is created for any file that is either missing the .QVR file or the .QVR file is older than the file. For LAS…
