This article explains in general all the analytics options that can be done and added to flights. Three main analytical tools are available:
A.
Measurements – Measurements may be done on the opened flight instance of
the site.
B.
Analytics – Analytics usually involves the currently opened flight instance
and one or more of the other flight instances for comparison purposes or delta
calculations. Additionally, the site CAD design may be used in analytical tools as a comparison instance.
C.
Annotations – Annotations may be added to the opened flight instance.
All available
analysis must be added as one of 3 objects.
- Line analysis
- Polygonal area analysis, and
- Point analysis
Access to these
three tools is done using the toolbar on the right side of the main viewing
screen shown below.
For line objects,
it is possible to add Measurements and Analytics as show below.
For polygonal
objects, it is also possible to add Measurements and Analytics as show below.
