When performing regressions, we'd like a tool that functions similarly to the Corridor Objects tool: have multiple functionalities all in one dialog. If we could perform regressions and have access to things like offsets, status (use, ignore, fixed, information points), curve constraint parameters, chain parameters, and point inputs, it would tremendously increase production.
Add all the regression tools from OpenRail to OpenRoads
Regression Points Table - Provides tabular display of regression points.
Regression Complex Table - Displays the components of the regression complex geometry.
Add to Regression Complex - Adds selected geometry to the regression complex.
Reset Slew Values - Resets/removes existing slew values to 0.00 for recalculation. Resets slew graphic representation.
Change Regression Complex - Replaces the existing regression complex with the selected geometry complex.
2. An improved regression report:
Additional data we would like to see in a report. The regression points with the offset, weight, and status, along with the slew to the calculated line or geometry. Also, the difference between the offset and the slew. The report would also need the final calculated line or geometry.
3. The ability to use Survey Points and Lines for regression and to equate the survey and geometry elements to the regression elements in the report.
The better the tools we have for OpenRoads Designer, the better we can utilize the software. Right now we are still having to go back to PowerGeopak SS10 to create alignments.
