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 with specifications that can’t be entirely supported by OPUS.
• Yes, again. As well as OPUS does, sacrificing simplicity for flexibility can improve results in many cases.

What’s In This Workshop?

• By attending this workshop, you should 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.
