Converting Correction Files
The RTC6 Software Package includes the program
CorrectionFileConverter.exe for converting
ctb correction files to ct5 correction files and vice
versa. The corresponding manual is supplied in
English and German.
When converting a ctb -correction file into a
ct5 -correction file, the ct5 -correction file header
receives a corresponding origin indicator
(parameter 10, page 179, P
Orig
= 20000).
Such conversions do not produce fully complete
ct5 -correction files because the file header lacks
several parameters. These can be subsequently
entered manually by CorrectionFileConverter.exe
(via button Show File Header).
Moreover, it may happen that the inverse
correction table to be calculated numerically during
the conversion does not cover the entire Image Field
or cannot be calculated. In this case, a
1to1 correction table is inserted instead, see also
parameter 11, page 179.
In contrast, converting a ct5 -correction file into a
ctb -correction file results in a fully complete
ctb -correction file.
Parameter information from the ct5 -correction file
header are:
• no longer contained in a ctb -correction file for
2D correction table
• contained partially in a ctb -correction file for
3D correction tables
