Traverse Wizard: Traverse Result

Traverse Wizard: Traverse Result

Before you take over the computation results to your project, the calculation results are listed.

You see:

You see:

  • The total traverse length.
  • The number of stations included.
  • The achieved 1D and 2D accuracy (if the misclosure is zero these fields are dashed).
  • The misclosure point.
  • The misclosure values after adjustment.
  • The calculated scale.Select Apply scale to observations if you want to apply the scale factor resulting from the traverse computation to all setups that make up the traverse. For each setup, all observations are scaled with this value.
  • The kind of error distribution (balancing) you have chosen for angles and height.
  • Transformation values applied as a result of point resourcing (based on start station and initial azimuth).
  • The adjusted results calculated for the traverse point coordinates using the control coordinates at the start (and the end) of the traverse plus the Δ values in position and height relative to the coordinates resulting internally from the measurements.How large the Δ values are depends on how you choose to distribute the errors in Step 4: Calculate Traverse.

The    adjusted coordinates should be taken as target coordinates when recalculating setups on sideshot points of the traverse.
