Using ppp result from day 144 as can't do ppp on the basestation today (no clk/sp3 files available yet).

Done nav processing.

Scan Angle Correct value (-10340) does not match current values which have an average of ~-9200.

Updating Scan Angle Correct to -9200, need to notify ops about this (according to the wiki).

Chose the following 6 lines for attune:

High
2 x orthog: 0628 (N) + 0645 (E)
1 x opposing: 0633 (S)
1 x offset: 0638 (E)*

Mid
2 x orthog 0657 (N) + 0705 (E)

• it has W in it's name but says is going East. Though this might be 30% overlapped with the opposing westbound line rather than the eastbound 0645. In this case I don't know what to do if there aren't any offset lines going in the same direction.

[stgo]

Having some issues processing using attune. It can't find the autoboresight program and won't explain how to point to it, will post a fix on the wiki if I find one.

[stgo]

Fix is to run attune from the program folder rather than start menu or a shortcut.

[stgo]

IBRC is being recognised as invalid.

[stgo]

I have overcome the IBRC problem by processing on linux. I have no explaination why it will not work on the windows machine.

[stgo]

Attune crashes on attempt to reduce tie points, reprocessing to check if lack of IBRC is the reason.

[stgo]

I am replacing 0633 with 0650 as the opposed line. Lasground is rejecting 0633, it would be worth investigating why.

[stgo]

Fixed Attune, presumably the problem is linked to changing the line and reprocessing with IBRC. I will make a note in the wiki.

Found pitch roll and heading values that work consistently:

pitch: -0.001157190
heading: 0.000185120
roll low: -0.003859930

Currently processing range offsets, lascontrol ouputs based on 36 control points:
abs: 2.06434
rms: 2.09265
stddev: 1.02766

skew is 3.32942

Actual elevation error is -1.8309713861

Range offsets using only low altitude lines:

Range offset A1: -1.83097
Range Offset A2: -1.822

Using all lines:

Above values returned errors of 30 cm. Have reprocessed removing three more GCPs to get the following:

Based on 33 of 33 control points.
abs: 2.12336
rms: 2.12359
stddev: 0.0316578
Skew is 0.861423.

Actual range offset (after calculating myself): -2.1233593939

Range offsets:

Range offset A1: -2.123359

Range Offset B1: -2.123

Results from lascontrol on low lines using these values:
abs: 0.0248971
rms: 0.0290698
stddev: 0.0290275
skew is 0.511644.

Actual abs is -0.00529.

High lines lascontrol output:

Now calibrating FW

Following discovery the scan angle correct value was wrong I am reprocessing, new initial range offsets:

Range offset A1: 0
Range Offset A2: 0.008
Range Offset A3: 0.038
Range Offset A4: -0.009

Range Offset B1: 0.000
Range Offset B2: 0.003
Range Offset B3: -0.003
Range Offset B4: 0.020

Movement of the scan angle correct appears to have shifted all roll values -0.00183(ish). This saved time finding the new values. I will run range correction after I have checked the pitch/roll values found.

[stgo]
