Reference Plane & Grid Scan
With four or more points, a least squares adjustment is calculated resulting in a
best fit plane.
The origin of the reference plane can be defined to be in the plane coordinates
or in relation to the national coordinate system.
The orientation of the grid is part of a reference plane. The orientation is
defined during the reference plane definition and can be changed when editing
a reference plane.
The positive direction of the plane is defined by the direction of the Y axis. The
direction of the Y axis can be redefined by selecting a point on the desired side
of the plane.
