Abstract

An angle measured in a traverse with an error margin can be used in the calculation of traverse. However it is not
possible to determine this error manually. In present, the calculation of the
traverse coordinates are carried out on the computer by CAD assisted software.
The determination of the point at which this gross error accomplished is
improvised by a theoretical relationship. A flow chart of the program for
scientific calculators and computers are given together with numerical
examples.

Keywords

Connecting traverse, blunder angle (gross error angle), single calculation method
