Workshop Outline

  • Step 2: Uploading Data To Your Project
  • Step 3: Session Processing
  • Step 4: Network Adjustment
  • Open Discussion

What Is OPUS-Projects?
  • Web-based access to process multiple marks and multiple occupations
  • Data uploading through OPUS
  • Data processing using the PAGES software
  • Visualization and management aids
  • Least squares adjustment
Do We Really Need Another OPUS Flavor?
  • Yes. The NGS and other groups have a history of projects whose specifications can’t be entirely supported by OPUS.
  • Yes, again. As good as OPUS does, sacrificing simplicity for flexibility can improve results in many cases.
What’s In This Workshop?
  • By attending this workshop, you will have enough information to successfully use OPUS-Projects for your own projects. Once the training is completed, you’ll be given an opportunity to register your email address thereby authorizing you to create and process new OPUS-Projects.
  • A project containing a training data set will be assigned to you. You’ll have an opportunity to work along with the presentations. In addition, time is allotted for you to explore your project individually.

For questions concerning this class, please contact Denis.Riordan@noaa.gov.
