1. The complexity - SRC space can be used to differentiate sensor orientation, tracing direction and analysis direction on the same surface. 2. Anisotropic characteristics with respect to complexity are apparent, only when the orientation of the sensor is controlled. 3. Analyses perpendicular to the tracing direction results in a greater scatter in the complexity of the measurements. 4. Analysis in the tracing direction results in a greater smooth-rough crossover. 5. Artifacts are imparted both by the orientation of the triangulation laser sensor and by the scanning and tracing tables or some noise which varies with time.
