Project Application 
  
DEMO Object-oriented data acquisition and editing; data 
output with specialized graphics tables 
PLOTTING Graphics-oriented editing and output 
(simple digital mapping) 
TRAINING Establishment of a project environment by the user 
with the "Typical Applications" described in the 
manual. 
Further projects are being prepared for 
"DTM Measurement" and "Aerotriangulation" 
  
  
  
  
The training projects are provided not only for initial familiarization 
with PHOCUS and for training courses, but also for direct productive use. 
4.2 THE MANUAL 
The PHOCUS input concept and the integrated learning aids have changed 
the conventional role of the manual considerably. This is why the PHOCUS 
operating manual does not list the complete range of functions and 
parameters of all PHOCUS application programs. Instead it describes: 
- General handling (starting and terminating, PHOCUS Base, input 
and output, system files). 
- Practical handling of typical applications (model orientation, 
work preparation; collecting, editing and outputting data). 
- Project and system management by the project manager. 
The manual thus provides the required information on the appropriate use 
of the PHOCUS application programs. In combination with the installed 
training projects (see above), the numerous examples assist in learning 
and consolidating major procedures. 
4.3 TRAINING BY SPECIALISTS 
As a complement to the learning aids described in sections 4.1 and 4.2, 
there are optional training courses for 
- operators and 
- project managers 
that provide intensive training in the general handling and productive 
use of PHOCUS. These one-week courses are given by application 
specialists.
