My company has gotten into a big fuss lately about the modern practices for setting GNSS control points. For the past ten years, we've been setting control by shotting a round of 60-second epochs and flipping the GNSS head 180deg and shooting another 60-second epochs. But lately there's been arguments that that is unnecessary and we should be doing less thanks to modern GNSS.

My company uses Trimble R12i for rovers and an R10 whenever we use base stations (which is rare).

What is your standard?

EDIT: I should've clarified this is just for basic topographic projects and tying monuments for them.

I want to be able to use my Radiomaster Pocket for flying helicopters in the upcoming Wardogs so I can have fun and practice controls (I know it will be different that's not what we're here to talk about), but when I tried doing it use vJOY and Joystick Gremlin it was an absolute sh*t show.

I heard reWASD does everything required to setup and map a joystick as a controller without having to use multiple softwares. Even if it's $40, it seems like it'd be nice to just skip the BS and have some fun.

Does reWASD work good? Have you any experience using it? Does anyone have other advice for me trying to use my joystick for flying in games? Should I give up and just use my KB+M?

Anyone know where in Seattle proper I can help my sweet boy achieve this dream? I live in Edmonds but don't really have the downlow in Seattle.

We're not picky, and we love a good grungey pub and street style food.

Is the Sounder running at different times for the game on Friday the 19th or will I still be able to take a ride at 8AM from Edmonds to Seattle and then back around 4?

​

I saw there were some new times posted but I just want to make sure the normal morning times are running, too.

Deegan proved his worth.

Jett is in a meditative state.

Hunter toying with Deegan? Dropped him.

Season's gonna be good.

PS: RIP Prado? Wtf?

You head out into the field to map an intersection. You need four control points at each corner of the interesection to map it properly. You set up your RTK GNSS rover and connect it to your local reference network. The satellites are coming in good, under 0.050sft vertically and horizontally, which is acceptable for anything GNSS.

Now it's time to setup and map the interesection using a total station. You set up on a point, and backsight to another. Your horizontal and vertical deltas are over a 0.100sft---not acceptable. It's unsurprising as both points were set using GNSS, and if the error is in the opposite direction for both shots, that number seems pretty understandable.

Now you have control set with GNSS (which can be adjusted later in the office using monuments and rotations), but you need to map with your total station right now.

How do you reoccupy on the GNSS-set control and reshoot the points with a total station to get real world ground coordinates and tighten the control so it's relative?

I'm curious to see how other surveyors manage this. We did this yesterday in the field and three of us had a different way to do it with our own arguements as to why ours is the best.

Idk why I haven't heard it yet but I just remember that the main feature I want in classic+ plus, aside from new raids, dungeons, and zones, are dungeon maps.

Thanks for listening Blizzard...

Hunter gained almost 1 second every lap the entire race. That was an insane push per lap.

Ending on a 13 second lead over the rest of the field, including Kenny, is fucking incredible.

I'm rooting for Suzuki's (and Ken's) next title, but I'll be ecstatic for Hunter to show who he is.

Incredible show.

Salt Lake is gonna be a clinic.
