Loading and Cleaning Shoreline • Load Shoreline. • Close off all open shoreline • Create ocean boundary • Find bad segments • Jump to bad segments to • clean each one. Bad shoreline point Create ocean boundary Close all open segments Clean Shoreline (Find Bad Segments)
Create Triangulated Mesh Some stations fall outside of the shore- line. You can move then inside the shore- line by adjusting the lat/lon. If they are not inside, they will not get used. Triangulated Mesh

If Clarendon were to drop out, can you just use Fort Pulaski? Differences up to ~0.4m
Error Estimation Fort Pulaski and Clarendon Analysis shows that Clarendon needs to be operating during the time of the survey.
Tide Station Info Two stations are in and operating. The rest are all historic stations that can be used for harmonics and datums Only check “Solve Combinations” if your analysis shows that it is acceptable for an operating gauge to drop out.
