I'd definitely use the .3d file (no rounding, and a file format that's
intended for machine parsing).

tl;dr: No and yes!

By "relative error of a loop" I'm assuming you mean "misclosure / length
of traverse * 100%".  If so that's not really a useful measure, though
at least historically it's been a fairly popular one, I suspect because
it's an obvious one to calculate.

The problem with it is that what's a "good" value depends on the length
of the traverse.  For random errors, the squares of the errors add, so a
traverse which is 100 times as long would be expected to only have 10
times the error, which means the relative error would be expected to be
10/100 = 1/10 as much.

As well as not providing a reliable measure of the random error, a
blunder in a long traverse will tend to be smoothed out in the relative
error, as it gets divided by the length of the traverse.

Observed error divided by theoretical error should be agnostic to length
of traverse.  It's simply telling you which traverses don't seem to be
surveyed to the accuracy that was claimed.

I've done the armchair equivalent and used Aven's error colouring to
successfully find mis-ties, reversed legs, etc.

Hi, I agree with Bruce, that it is really a very useful feature. I have
just pushed it on GitHub (see commit 2ebc7ed).

The only problem is, that survex calculates error which "is the ratio of
the observed misclosure to the theoretical one". I have implemented more
simple export (it was much easier), currently therion .3d export contains
error equal to 2 * relative error of a loop. (because of 0-12 aven fixed
error scale). It should be possible to extract survex relative error from
either thTMPDIR/data.err or data.3d file, but it will take some time.

But when I compared 3D files with relative loop error and error with survex
ratio, I received two quite different pictures. Are these two measures not
comparable? Is a relative error of a loop useless number? Has anybody tried
to go to a cave and resurvey "red shots", whether they are really so bad?

[Therion] Colors and thickness for new symbols

2017-02-22 Thread thomasschilter--- via Therion
Dear Therion-Community
 
I try to change some symbols on my layout. This works with most symbols. With 
two symbols I can not go any further.
 
1. With the symbol "Absatz Lehm" I can not transfer the color to the whole 
symbol. The symbol is similar to the line floorstep (Fig .: Legend_Linecolor). 
The base line takes the color brown, with the right-angled lines I have no idea 
that works:
code metapost
 def l_u_absatz_lehm (expr P) = 
  T:=identity;
  cas := 0;
  dlzka := arclength P;
  mojkrok:=adjust_step(dlzka, .5u); % Schraffurabstand eingeben
  pickup PenD;
  draw p withcolor (0.75,0.2,0.12);  % not works!!!
  forever:
   t := arctime cas of P;
   mark_ (P,t,0.9u);
   cas := cas + mojkrok;
  exitif cas > dlzka + (mojkrok /3); % for rounding errors
  endfor;
  pickup PenC;  
  thdraw P withcolor (0.75,0.2,0.12); % works
 enddef;
 
initsymbol("l_u_absatz_lehm")
 
def l_u_absatz_lehm_legend =
 l_u_absatz_lehm(((-.3,0.5) .. (.3,.3) .. (.7,.7) .. (1.3,.5)) inscale)
 enddef;
endcode
 
text de "line u:absatz_lehm" "Absatz Lehm"
 
 
2. The second symbol “phreatische Fliessrichtung” is only one line. However, I 
would like to place the symbol with the outline in the legend box. Compare with 
the figure Legend_Color_Pen. The outside lines should be gray and slightly 
thicker than the line in the middle.
 
code metapost
 def l_u_phreatisch (expr P) = 
  T:=identity;
  pickup PenC;
  thdraw P;
enddef;
 
 initsymbol("l_u_phreatisch")
 
 def l_u_phreatisch_legend =
  l_u_phreatisch(((.25,.5){dir 300} .. (.65,.5)) inscale);
  l_u_phreatisch(((.4,1.0) .. (.2,.5){dir 270} .. (.1,0.0)) inscale) % must be 
grey (0.86, 0.86, 0.86) and PenA
  l_u_phreatisch(((.8,1.0) .. (.7,.5){dir 270} .. (.6,0.0)) inscale) % must be 
grey (0.86, 0.86, 0.86) and PenA
 enddef;
endcode
 
text de "line u:phreatisch" "phreatische Fliessrichtung"
Does anyone know a solution?
Thank you and best regards

I am able to export fixed stations and entrances with therion 5.3.15.
They are nicely visible once the button is activated in the aven viewer.

Do you really need it? There is „debug on“ option in thconfig, which will 
produce very clear visualization of the biggest error in exported map.

Re: [Therion] Clino question

2017-02-22 Thread Torsten Schnitter via Therion
Hello

I found the reason for the problem.

When I compiled just the part of the cave around this shot everything is 
working as expected.
(Thanks for pointing me in this direction of troubleshooting)

When I compiled all the survey data of the cave I got this clino problem.
I figured out when not closing a specific loop around this shot this error is 
not present any more.
And then I figured out that there is any problem with the survey data 
concerning water depth and/or clino around this area.

When just compiling the plan view this error is not obvious or let's say this 
errors seems to be very little.
Just close the loop and you are done.
But when compiling the elevation view someone can see this measuring error as 
there is a gap of several meters in height.

When closing this loop then Therion is calculating the average error and is 
correcting all data inbetween this loop.
Also clino data and the result is as described in my initial problem.

(I hope you can understand what I'm talking about. ;-) )

Thanks,
Torsten

Re: [Therion] Translation doubt: what's a "clay-tree" point?

2017-02-22 Thread Martin Sluka via Therion
There is one unique source of speleological and karsological terms - vocabulary 
of Prof. Vladimír Panoš.

Karsologická a speleologická terminologie: výkladový slovník s ekvivalenty ve 
slovenštině a jednacích jazycích Mezinárodní speleologické unie (UNESCO) 
(angličtina, francouzština, italština, němčina, ruština, španělština)
Vladimír Panoš, 2001

Karsological and speleological terminology: explanatory dictionary with 
equivalents in Slovak and official languages of UIS (English, French, Italian, 
German, Russian, Spanish). More than 3000 terms there.

Eyplanations are only in Czech.

You may find it in libraries, but as I may say you may find the PDF version 
too. 

It is very big pity that UIS never used this source as base for on-line 
speleological vocabulary, because the digital sources still exists in Slovakia.
