1. A system for measuring a work piece, the system comprising:

  • a trajectory module configured to store an established measurement trajectory;

    a controller in data communication with the trajectory module to receive, from the trajectory module, the established measurement trajectory, and configured to control a measuring probe according to a subset of, but less than all of, the established measurement trajectory;

    a trajectory analysis module configured to analyze an actual trajectory executed by the measuring probe, relative to the established measurement trajectory, based on measurements of the work piece taken according to at least two consecutive target points of the established measurement trajectory, and to produce a trajectory divergence; and

    a trajectory revision module configured to generate a revised trajectory based on the established measurement trajectory and the trajectory divergence,the controller configured to control the measuring probe to measure the work piece according to the revised trajectory.
