Introduction
The geo-sensor provides reliable measurement data regarding the pipeline geometry so you can directly transfer them to your end customer (engineer office, local water authorities etc.).
Adjusting the Position of Objects
In some specific cases you will probably have to slightly move or rotate the whole geometry of a section (i.e. main pipe and linked laterals) in WinCan Map according to the background plot. Proceed as follows to do so:
Go the legend panel and select the layer WinCan_Sections
Highlight the section to be moved or rotated
Define the DXF-plot as the snapping layer
Activate the tool Home → Move to move the whole section or a manhole to another location on the map.
Activate the tool Home → Rotate to move only the end point of a section to the desired location. The start point thus becomes a pivot:
When moving or rotating, the object (i.e. section or manhole) is going to snap to the corresponding reference lines on the DXF plot.
Geometry and length of the section do never change during this process and are always based on the previously done 3D Measurement.
Mind that both tools can only be applied to the currently selected section.
