Curve Calculator
Main Menu | Calculations | Curve Calculator
FieldGenius includes a curve calculator that can be used to check curve data and also compute and curve points.

Define Known Data
You first have to define what known information you want to use to compute the curve. If you click on the drop down list you will see a list of all the options that can be used to compute the unknown values.
Enter the Known Data
Once you define the known data format, you will see grayed out fields which indicate they can't be edited. White areas indicate fields that can be edited, and these fields will match what you defined in the first step.
-
You always have to define the direction for the curve, either right or left.
-
Enter your know values.
-
If you want to store points, you need to define the PC point. You can enter the point id or use the point chooser.
-
You also need to define the PC Tangent direction, so FieldGenius knows the orientation of the curve.
Store Points
Once you have computed your curve data, you have the option of storing the PT and Center points. When you press either button you will see the store and edit screen.
