Profiles

The Profiles feature is available for GeoMoS Now! Survey Edition users after a successful log in as an Administrator or an Editor. It is used to create 2D profiles with a defined azimuth in order to calculate longitudinal and transverse displacements.

 

Only GeoMoS Now! Survey Edition Cloud version users can use Profiles menu due to technical reasons. For all other deployments of GeoMoS Now!, profiles are taken over from GeoMoS Monitor. The main purpose of Profiles feature is 2D displacement calculation.

 

 

Create a profile

Selecting Profiles in Configuration menu enters the profiles overview. From there profiles can be created by clicking the following link:

 

The user has to appoint a name and an azimuth to the profile. The azimuth can either be manually entered or calculated from the start and end point of the profile. The azimuth unit corresponds to the Angles unit selected in Settings - Units.

The azimuth is calculated from the Null coordinates of selected points.

 

 

In the second step of the Profile Assistant, points need to be appointed to the selected profile. To assign points to a profile, please refer to the Point management page.

Edit a profile

To edit an existing profile click on the modify icon in Action column of the Profiles overview page. Edit the settings and store the changes by clicking on Finish button.

 

Only points which are not appointed to any Profile will be displayed in the Point management page. To move a point from one profile to another, it needs to be removed from the existing profile first.

 

 

Delete a profile

To delete an existing profile click on the delete icon in Action column of the Profiles overview page and click "Yes" on the pop-up question to confirm.

 

 

Profile Overview

Profiles Overview page contains the list of all profiles, which can be sorted by name.

 

By clicking on the icon, the list of all points which belong to that profile will appear.

 

 

Points summary

To get a good overview of points and profiles, there is a Points Summary table, which is sortable by Point Name and Profile Name.

 

Longitudinal and transverse displacements

Once the points belongs to the profile, for all incoming data longitudinal and transverse displacements will be calculated with respect to the profile direction. There is no post-processing available for existing results, so in order to recalculate the displacements, the data would need to be re-imported. For new projects, it's important to define the profiles at the very beginning.

 

Use profile direction from Captivate jobs

The profile direction that was defined in the Captivate TPS Monitoring application will be used for the transversal and longitudinal displacements. This information can either be read in automatically by activating the setting in Automated import or manually within the Coordinate Import settings.

 

The checkbox “Use profile direction from Captivate job” has to be activated in both cases.

 

 

Coordinates Unit

As the unit inside the files depends on the instrument’s regional settings, the user can define from the dropdown list, which unit shall be used for the automatic import.

 

From version 8.0 of the Captivate TPS monitoring application, the unit for the coordinates is fixed to meters and the unit for the azimuth is fixed to gon.

 

Add Captivate Job

The Captivate Job can be selected and added from the dropdown list.

 

The Captivate Job must be already sent from the Captivate TPS monitoring app to the GeoMoS Now! to be shown in the dropdown list.

Multiple Captivate Jobs can be added to the project.

 

 

List of Jobs

The added Captivate Jobs can be viewed in the List of Jobs.

By clicking on the delete button , the Captivate Job is deleted from the project.
