Traverse Adjustment

Rigorous least-squares adjustment with closure statistics, error ellipses, and blunder detection. Everything runs in your browser — no data leaves this page.

Direction of first leg (azimuth or bearing)

Stations in traverse order; angles are angles right (clockwise from backsight). The last distance closes back to station 1.
