Sample Calculation

(𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝐿𝑒𝑓𝑡 ±180)+𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑅𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡


1) 𝑀𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝐵𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔 =
2
(274 0 24’ 40’’+180)+94 0 24’ 20’’
=
2
= 94 0 24’ 30’’

2) Final Bearing;
Bearing 1-2 observe = 0 0 31’ 28’’
Supposed to be read = 0 o 30’ 00’’
Closure Error = 0 o 1’ 28’’
Error per Station = 0 o 1’ 28’’/ 5
= ± 0° 0’ 17.6’’
Final Bearing = C - 0° 0’ 17.6’’
= 94 0 24’ 30’’ - 0° 0’ 17.6’’
= 94 0 24’ 12.4’’

3) Latitude = cos 𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔 ∗ 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒


= cos 0 ′ 30’ 00’’∗ 44.389
= 44.387

4) Departure = sin 𝑏𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑖𝑛𝑔 ∗ 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒


= sin 0 ′ 30’ 00’’ ∗ 44.389
= 0.387

𝛿𝑁∗𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒
5) Corrected latitude & departure =
𝐷
44.387∗ 44.389
=
𝟐𝟓𝟕.𝟓𝟕𝟐
= 44.389

6) Miss closure Error =√(𝛿𝑁 2 + 𝛿𝐸 2 )

= √(0.012 + 0.0132
= 0.0164 m
Miss Closure Error
7) Accuracy =
total distance
0.0164 -1
= m
257.572
= 1 in 15705.61

1 𝑁 𝐸
8) Area = ⌈𝜀 − 𝜀 ⌉
2 𝑆 𝑊
1
= 2 ⌈1384065.411 − 1392121.059⌉
= 4027.824 m2
