Advanced Scenario - Pass to Pass - GPS Precision

When a user selects the GPS Precision parameter for an Equipment Explorer scenario this will automatically reduce the guidance width by the value entered and calculate the pass to pass overlap generated by this.  This allows a user to compare two different GPS correction sources and their level of Precision.  The minimum requirement for calculation is to have a swath width entered for both "Owned Equipment" and 'New Equipment".

To add the parameter for GPS Precision click on the "+ GPS Precision" button at the bottom of the scenario builder.


Enter the value for Pass to Pass accuracy for each GPS correction type to compare.  




To calculate the scenario insure that all required and desired parameters are added to the scenario builder. When ready hit the "Calculate" Button to run the scenario calculations.



While the scenario is calculating you will be presented with a loading screen and progress bar:



Once the scenario is finished being calculated you will be presented with the final Equipment Explorer Scenario. 
      - Looking in the Equipment section you will see that the Swath Width has been automatically reduced by the value entered into the GPS Precision parameter in the scenario builder.  A Width of 45 ft was entered in for both pieces of equipment in this scenario.
      - Looking at the Planned Overlap Area of the results we show the Pass to Pass overlap that is calculated based of the overlap created by reducing the Guidance Width.
