adj. [US Geological Survey] A procedure that has yet to be completely
|
|
|
|
|
automated; it still requires a smidge of clueful human interaction.
|
|
|
|
|
Semi-automated programs usually come with written-out operator instructions
|
|
|
|
|
that are worth their weight in gold without them, very nasty things can
|
|
|
|
|
happen. At USGS semi-automated programs are often referred to as
|
|
|
|
|
semi-automated weapons.
