incorrect *calibrations output to temp survex files? #100

Closed jedwards1211 closed 8 years ago

jedwards1211 commented 8 years ago

In a trip with corrected compass and clino, the temp survex file generated by Cavewhere has:

*calibrate BACKCOMPASS 180.00
*calibrate BACKCLINO 0.00 -1.00

This is what should be used when the backsights are uncorrected, right? I assume it should have output

*calibrate BACKCOMPASS 0.00
*calibrate BACKCLINO 0.00

For some reason I've only seen this with imported Fisher Ridge data.

If you want, I can send a screenshot showing the mismatch, don't want to attach it here for the sake of FRCS data privacy

jedwards1211 commented 8 years ago

Hmmm, nevermind, I assume Survex expects the backsights after calibration to be in the opposite direction? Looking at the code, your *calibrate output was obviously intentional, and surely I would have seen problems with other caves. I think the problem with FRCS data is that there are shots where clino and backclino are both "Down". I'll open a separate issue for that

Survex is a bit backwards when it come to calibrations.

I think it's a Survex bug. It's complaining about shots like this, under the above calibration:

HC15        HC16        1.3         -           -           DOWN        DOWN

Cavern is saying:

0kz1lsqn0fg37x3tt94dvdsm0000gn/T/Cavewhere.L39692:11033: CLINO and BACKCLINO readings must be of the same type\n/var/folders/sp/

I'll file a bug on Survex's tracker...

We might have to omit one of the down in the export.
