Traverse is an app used to establish control networks whereby other survey
operations such as topographic surveys or point stake outs can be completed.
The Traverse methods include 2D Helmert transformation, compass rule and
transit rule.
A Helmert transformation is calculated based on two control points. These
must be the start point and the end, or closing, station. Shift, rotation and
scale factor will be computed and applied to the traverse.
Starting a traverse without an initial backsight measurement will automatically
result in a Helmert transformation.
The coordinate misclosure will be distributed with respect to the length of the
traverse legs. The compass rule assumes that the biggest error comes from the
longest traverse observations. This method is suitable when the precision of
the angles and distances are approximately equal.
The coordinate misclosure will be distributed with respect to the coordinate
changes in Easting and Northing. Use this method if the angles were measured
with a higher precision than the distances.
1. Start and configure Traverse.
2. Enter station data.
3. Select starting method.
4. Measure a backsight point or go directly to step 5..
5. Measure a foresight point.
6. Repeat for the number of sets.
7. Move to the next station.
It is also possible to observe sideshots and check points during the tra-
•
verse, however, check points are not included in the traverse adjustment.
At the end of the traverse, results are displayed and an adjustment may be
•
calculated if desired.
