Coordinates & Joins: From a Start Point, Join Bearings with ATAN and a Quadrant Correction, and Radiation

Lesson 6 of 817 minLab

This lesson is part of the course

In this lesson

You build coordinates for all stations from the start point and the adjusted ΔE/ΔN, close back on A, compute join distances and bearings between points with ATAN plus a quadrant correction (including a due-west join where ΔN = 0) and fix three detail points by radiation.
