Calculations

The calculation menu contains calculation based functions that can be used to compute points, lines and other data.

Inverse

Use this to inverse between points. Please see the Inverse topic for more information.

Traverse / Intersection

This will open the Traverse / Intersect toolbar. You can enter in directions and distances and perform common intersections such as bearing / bearing, distance/distance and many more. Please see the Traverse / Intersection topic for more information.

Offset Intersection

Use this to compute points that are located at computed intersections and offsets. This is essentially a bearing-bearing intersection, but you can specify offsets. Please see the Offset Intersection topic for more information.

Station / Offset

Use this to compute points at pre-defined stations and offsets. You can also use this to display the station and offset of existing points. Please see the Station / Offset topic for more information.

Rotate / Translate / Scale

Use this to compute coordinate shifts based on rotation, translation and scale parameters. Please see the Apply User Defined Parameters topic and the Apply Control Calculated Parameters topic for more information.

Curve Calculator

Use this to open a curve calculator. You define the values that you know, enter them, and then the remaining unknowns will be computed. Once you compute these values you have the option of storing the PT and Center points. Please see the Curve Calculator topic for more information.

Area Calculator

Use this to compute areas using points or lines in your project. You can also use this to compute predetermined areas. Please see the Area Calculator topic for more information.

Triangle Calculator

Use this to compute a triangle solution using known angles or distances. Please refer to the Triangle Calculator topic for more information.

Coordinate Calculator

Use this tool to help you convert Geodetic coordinates to Cartesian coordinates. Please refer to the Coordinate Calculator topic for more information.

Tangent to Circle

Use this to compute points that are located on the tangent of a circle. Please see the Tangent to Circle topic for more information.

Scientific Calculator

Use this to display the RPN calculator. Please see the Calculator topic for more information.
