Traverse Adjustment - Sokkia CX-62 Operator's Manual

24. TRAVERSE ADJUSTMENT

Measurement of a traverse begins with observation of the backsight station and
foresight station. The instrument station is then moved to the foresight station and
the previous instrument station becomes the backsight station. Observation is
performed again at the new position. This process is repeated for the length of the
route.
This adjustment function is used to calculate the coordinates of such a sequence
of consecutively-observed points (traverse points and points observed from
traverse points (see P3-1 to P3-3 below)). When calculation is complete, the CX
displays the precision of the traverse and, when necessary, traverse adjustment
can be performed.
