# Ignoring Found Points

Fitting tools have a run-time parameter that specifies a number of input points it can ignore to make a better fit. This allows the tool to ignore outlier points and just use the best-fit points to fit the shape. When you specify the number of calipers to use in your application, allow extra calipers and then specify a number of points that can be ignored by the fitting tool. In most cases, this will produce more accurate results.
