Use the Traverses collection to manage the existing traverses defined within the network.
You can create a traverse from data in a field book file, or use the Traverse Editor to manually enter survey data, for example hand notes or data from a site plan. Using the Traverse Editor is an efficient way to view and edit all the setups in a traverse contained in a Network.
You can use the Coordinate Geometry Editor to enter, edit, and output 2D traverse data. The Coordinate Geometry Editor enables you to create traverses from existing COGO data, load it from a polyline, or manually enter known data. You can save traverses for later modification, or generate traverse reports. For more information, see Editing Coordinate Geometry.
Create traverses to perform traverse closure analysis such as Compass Rule, Crandall Rule, or Transit Rule. You can also perform a least squares analysis on a traverse.
Change the initial properties for a traverse in the Traverse Properties dialog box.
Edit the properties of all traverses using the Traverses Editor panorama window, or edit an individual traverse in the Traverse Editor.
Analyze traverse data to determine the error of closure and to update the observations and survey data that is changed by the traverse adjustment.
