Design-specific Parameters
When Hot Spot: Unknown Hot Spot is selected during the Set sampling parameters step, the Parameters Window changes to look like the following:
Under Grid Definition, select a square, triangle, or rectangle grid style.
Enter the parameters for Shape Definition. For Hot Spot Shape, enter a value that is greater than or equal to .2 and less than or equal to 1. This is the ratio between the major and minor axes of the elliptical hot spot. (Note that 1 is a circle.) For Hot Spot Orientation, select Random to use omni directional ellipses, or select Degrees and enter a value between 0 and 90.
Enter a value between 1 and 100 for the Probability.
Press Show the Results and SADA will determine the number of new samples and display their locations on the Graphics Window. SADA will also enter the resulting Hot Spot Definition on the Parameters Window. If there are polygons, new samples will only be placed inside the active polygons.
To view the actual coordinates of the new sample points export the information to a comma delimited excel file by using the Output to File toolbar button in main form of SADA.
