Capstone – Area & Setting Out: Parcel Area from Coordinates, a Setting-Out Table and the Traverse Plot

Lesson 8 of 818 minLab

This lesson is part of the course

In this lesson

You compute the parcel area from the adjusted coordinates, prepare a setting-out table from station D with backsight to E – bearing, distance and the clockwise angle to turn for four design points – and plot the closed traverse as an XY scatter chart.
