Current version: 4.43.14b
Release Date: 04 February 2008
Release Notes
IMPORTANT (existing installations v4.43.12 or earlier): Before installing as an update over an existing v4.43.12 or earlier installation, you should FIRST un-install the existing Geoida version. Follow these steps:
- Exit Geoida if running
- Make a copy of Definitions.gld to another folder - necessary only if changes or additions have been made to the definitions library (eg new Projections, Transformations etc)
- Backup the contents of the Geoida\Data folder and sub-folders as required
- Use Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel to completely remove the old Geoida installation
- Install the new Geoida version
- Replace the new definitions library Definitions.gld with the saved copy (if saved in Step 2 above)
- If the installation is licensed but has become un-registered, re-validate in Help + Validate
The following is a summary of some of the changes in this release:
- Starting Geoida by file association: Geoida now correctly executes and opens a job file double-clicked in Explorer
- Radiations option - When the instrument station point has a valid height, a distance is now also reduced to datum when the Vert Angle and Vert Comp fields are blank (implies distance is horizontal)
- Inverse option - Terrain Distance is displayed only when Height Datum is Geoidal/Orthometric or Spheroidal (not when 'Arbitrary')
