An iterative method described as simulated annealing. An simultaneous process which is iterated until an acceptable improvement has been achieved. No shot is adjusted more than user specified amounts. Loops exceding a user specified blunder limit are not closed. Processes data very fast due to very optimized sorting and comparison routines.
Data can appear in any order and extensive results and statistics reporting is available.
Loop list is sorted by the ratio of actual to expected error, highlighting the worst closure errors. Un-closed error vectors are graphically displayed as dashed lines between stations. Loop shot sequences can be selected and viewed either graphically or texturally. Other facts such as number of stations, shots and surveys, extremes of the cave, length of the cave and its surveys, the length and number of shots in loops, the number of shots connecting any station, the location of any station and more are immediately available. Will run in any higher graphics modes supported in Windows.
