Microsearch Smoother
Smoother works with a series of data points with given N (northing), E (easting), and H (height). The N and E coordinates are normally map projection coordinates, and the H value is normally the height of the point.
Smoother is designed to work quickly even with tens of thousands of such data points. Once a set of points is loaded, you can use the "Smooth" tab to view and edit your points. This includes fitting a curve and visualizing residuals. The "Interpolate" tab can then be used to produce a smoothed set of points (with a specified spacing) that represent the original set of points.
Please note that this program functions only in demo mode (up to 5,000 points with heights between -10.0 and -7.0). If there is interest in a full version of this product, please reach out and it can be rebuilt as its licensing server is no longer functional.
The Microsearch Smoother can be downloaded at the below link:
Microsearch Spherical Area
The Microsearch Spherical Area tool provides the following computations:
The area of a polygon on the surface of a sphere (with the points in a counter-clockwise direction).
The area of a polygon orthographically projected through a specified vector to a plane.
