SmartAdjust
SmartAdjust is a powerful tool in GeoLabPX5 that optionally automates the statistical analysis of your adjustment iterations by analyzing the network's standardized residuals, commenting measurements out as indicated, and repeating the process until the adjustment is completed (if possible, and if not, messages are produced).
GeoLabPX5 also makes use of the GeoLabAPI, using SmartAdjust, to automate adjustment statistical analyses.
This feature allows you to automate GeoLab's handling of identified outliers in an adjustment, and it can be turned on and off using the "SmartAdjust" checkbox on GeoLabPX5's Assistant tab, so you can use it for producing your own adjustments. SmartAdjust is also used by the GeoLabAPI, which can also be enabled and disabled by clicking the Assistant tab's "GeoLabAPI" checkbox.
Important: SmartAdjust must be considered to be a helper tool - one that you must use with awareness and caution. Your professional knowledge of your specific survey must always be taken into account when analyzing your adjustment's residuals and standardized residuals.
SmartAdjust is a very smart feature in GeoLabPX5 that helps automate your adjustments for you. The largest outlier reported by GeoLab is handled by SmartAdjust, by commenting out the corresponding measurement, until no outliers occur.
SmartAdjust will therefore save you time and money. If you don't have a least squares analyst, don't worry, GeoLabPX5 can now do your statistical analysis for you using the GeoLabAPI and SmartAdjust!
Note that you can control the size of standardized residual that SmartAdjust will reject (comment-out), by setting the "Standardized residual minimum absolute value" in the General tab of the Preferences dialog. You can set this value to 4, for example, even when the actual residual critical value reported in GeoLab's output residuals listing is different from this specified value. Depending on your experience with the type of project you are working on, you can therefore choose to reject more or less measurements in each case.
