I have been doing this for years, and pretty sure it is working fine, no errors 
or warnings flagged by Therion at least.  Although I have not checked that the 
weighted averaging of the positions appears to be working correctly for about 5 
years now, so there is a possibility it has got broken in the meantime. However 
nothing gross is happening or I would have noticed.
There were some issues and work arounds that were discussed on the forum.

I vaguely recall that the multiple fixes did start turning up in loop 
reporting, as Satcho described, but I'm not sure about that - could be 
imagination.

I think it is appropriate functionality for Therion.  Over time many position 
fixes on a station, usually in different surveys, all with their own std 
errors.  Therion as far as I know handles these just fine, averaging 
appropriately.  If it does not, then something is broken.

At least two datasets where I do this are still in active use, if I get time I 
will make sure all is still well.

I think it is a topic that deserves a wiki FAQ or Tips and Tricks entry

Subject: [Therion] Multiple fixes for the same point

I'm sure that this has been covered, but I cannot find it anywhere.

I have 3 different gps results for a surface point, all taken with the same gps 
but on different days, so rather then picking one I just used fix on all 3.

However, therion appears to be taking only the last one I enter.
This does not seem to be the right behaviour! Is there a way for Therion to 
take all 3 and 'average' them?

thanks in advance

Andrew
