Adjustment Functions | Lt | Std | Pro |
---|---|---|---|
Compass RulePerform a compass rule adjustment on a series of points in a closed loop or to a fixed point. The precision, perimeter/length and misclose information is calculated. Review pre and post-adjustment course dimensions and optionally adjust the point coordinates. | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ |
Rotate/Mirror

Shift/Average
| ✔ | ✔ | ✔ |
ScaleScale a series of points from a base point by specified horizontal and vertical scale factors. | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ |
HelmertsTransform a series of points from one coordinate system to another by matching up control points in both systems. Points may be matched up 2D or 3D and the scale factor may be fixed at 1. The least squares solution computes the origin shift of the transformation, rotation and scale factor parameters, the standard deviation in the northing/easting, the elevation shift and the residuals for each control pair. | -- | ✔ | ✔ |
Surveying Functions | Lt | Std | Pro |

Traverse PlusEmulates data collected from a total station. Can be used to create coordinates from raw observation files by entering distances (slope or horizontal), angles (horizontal and vertical), and heights (instrument and target).
| -- | -- | ✔ |
LevellingCreate multiple levelling jobs with fully editable observation data.
| -- | -- | ✔ |
AlignmentsCreate multiple complex 3D alignments with fully editable segments. The horizontal component of an alignment may include straight, curve, and spiral-curve-spiral segments. Vertical curves and straight grades can be used to define the vertical component, and cross section templates can be defined and assigned to portions of, or the whole alignment.
| -- | -- | ✔ |
Inaccessible PointCalculate the 3D coordinates of a point that was sighted from two different setups (horizontal and vertical angles). The 3D coordinates of both setup points and instrument heights of each station are required. | -- | -- | ✔ |
Plot PointsPlot on the screen a range of points, or all the points within the current job. Zoom and pan to get a graphical look at the point relationships within the job. | -- | -- | ✔ |

Triangle SolverSolve the remaining parts, area and perimeter of any triangle when providing 3 known parts. | ✔ | ✔ | ✔ |
Horizontal Curve SolverThe horizontal curve solver solves all the curve parameters when two parameters are provided, with one known parameter being either the radius or deflection angle, or provide the arc length and chord length to solve using Newton's method.
| ✔ | ✔ | ✔ |
Vertical Curve SolverSolve a vertical curve by entering grades or elevations. Fixed point vertical curves and slope intersections are also included.

ConversionsConvert between grid coordinates and geodetic (latitude/longitude) coordinates. Many different projection zones are pre-defined for use, including UTM and all US State Plane zones. Transverse Mercator and Lambert Conformal Conic (both 1SP and 2SP) projections that are currently not pre-defined can be added upon request.
