6.1 Management of Jobs

Jobs are managed from the Job
option in the Main Menu. Press
SHOW (F4) to reveal all of the Main
Menu choices.

Select Job and press ENTER.

The currently available Jobs are
displayed together with the date they
were created or last edited.

Keys to help you navigate through the
list are available by pressing SHIFT.

6. Jobs and Points

Jobs exist in order for you to be able
to structure and organize your work.
They define a common location within
the System 500 file system for points.

All points that are recorded will be
stored within a particular Job. This
Job may cover a whole project or part
of a larger project. It may cover
certain classes of points for a project
such as control points, detail points
etc.

Whole Jobs can then be downloaded
to and uploaded from SKI Pro. Jobs
are downloaded to SKI Pro for post-
processing operations or for data
transfer to a further program (such as
a GIS). Points contained within Jobs
that are uploaded can be used for
Real-Time Stakeout operations.

A copy of the Coordinate System that
was used with the last active Job will
also be stored.
