Find and remove grid points over water

Written by Dimitri Trofimuk

Removing points is permanent and cannot be undone. The change applies to every keyword associated with that grid configuration and affects all of its historical scans. Check the points carefully before confirming their removal.

Find and remove grid points over water

The Points over water audit tool helps you find grid configurations that may have points over water. It flags each grid for review so you can decide whether to remove the points or leave them as they are.

You can find the audit tool by opening Settings and clicking "Points over water" in the left menu, or by going directly to https://lrg.whitespark.ca/grids/audit.

Water detection can sometimes flag points you want to keep, such as points over small bodies of water or along a coastline. For that reason, review each grid before confirming any changes.

Review flagged grids

Open the Points over water audit tool to see grid configurations flagged for review. For each grid, you can:

  • Select Adjust to review its points and remove those you don’t want to track.

  • Select Dismiss if you want to leave the grid as it is.

Work through the list until it reaches zero. This gives you a way to keep track of which grids you’ve reviewed.

You can also open the point removal tool from a grid configuration on its location page. Learn how in How can I remove points from an existing grid configuration?

Remember, removing points is permanent and cannot be undone. The change applies to every keyword associated with that grid configuration and affects all of its historical scans. Check the points carefully before confirming their removal.
