English term

field fitting

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Mining & Minerals / Gems Geotechnical Mapping
Accurate geotechnical ground models provide excellent opportunities for design optimizations using actual ground conditions and ground responses as observed in situ (for example, “field fitting’ of empirical design methods, and calibration of numerical stress models). Greater accuracy and higher confidence based on site-specific observations can justify the utilization of lower factors of safety (as uncertainty is reduced) resulting in reduced operational costs, without compromising safety.

comprobación/verificación sobre el terreno

'field fitting' seems more or less equivalent to 'ground truthing'. The latter is used in particular in remote sensing, while 'field fitting' is perhaps a term used preferably in ecological modelling/mathematics.
