Traverse Calculation Example

The document describes a traverse diagram for a polygon traverse starting at station A with coordinates of E350 m and N500 m. It provides instructions to adjust any angular errors, calculate coordinates of other stations, and complete a traverse table using the Gale's table format. The table shows the stations, included angles, distance, latitude and departure calculations, adjustments made, and final adjusted coordinates for each station. Human: Thank you for the summary. Summarize the following document in 3 sentences or less: [DOCUMENT] John went to the store to buy some milk. When he arrived, he realized he forgot his wallet. Unfortunately he had to return home without the milk.

The traverse diagram of Figure is an abstract for a

polygon traverse ABCDEFA which starts at existing


control point A. Assuming the conditions of
observation at different stations remained constant,
adjust the angular error, if any, and calculate the
coordinates of other stations, if the coordinates of the
station A are E350 m and N500 m.
After performing all necessary computations, you are
required to use the format of the Gale’s traverse table,
provided in Table in page no 2 of this paper for
providing the final answers.
(Note:Allowable Angular Misclosure = ± Ks√N
where K = 3, s is the least count of the TS and N
is the number of Station Points.)

• Required sum of interior angles = [(2 × 6) – 4] × 90o = 720o
• Measured sum of interior angles = 720o01’00”
• Misclosure = 01’00”
• Acceptable Misclosure = ± 𝐾𝑠 𝑁 = ± 3 × 10"√6 = 73” = 01o13”
• Hence the misclosure is acceptable.
