Thread: Ilusorio

The sentence to translate:
No se pretenderá, por entenderlo ilusorio, mejorar sustancialmente en gabinete la calidad de los trabajos observacionales

My attempt:
It will not be tried, understanding it false, to improve substantially in cabinet the quality of ...

No se pretenderá, por entenderlo ilusorio, mejorar sustancialmente en gabinete la calidad de los trabajos observacionales

It will not be expected—understanding it is false—to substantially improve through office [handlings/procedures/meetings?] the quality of observation works.

Sol, I notice you post frequently. For future reference, remember that the more context you provide, the more accurate and appropriate interpretation can be given to your sentences.

The main idea is (gist?): If the quality of the observations (angles and distances) is not good, the calculations we make in office (en gabinete) cannot improve it.

Thank you.
