Land Surveyor

The Excel Resection by Angles Computation is a surveying calculation method used to determine the coordinates of an unknown point (station) by measuring angles and distances from three or more known points (reference objects or ROs) with known coordinates.

The Excel Resection by Angles Computation

The input data required for this computation include the measured azimuth, the known coordinates of the reference objects (ROs), and the angles observed between the ROs and the unknown point (station).

The computation involves several steps, including converting the measured azimuth to a computed bearing, calculating the interior angles between the ROs and the unknown point, and applying trigonometric functions to determine the unknown point's coordinates.

The computation is performed using an Excel spreadsheet, which simplifies the calculations and allows for easy manipulation of the input data and results.

It is important to note that the known RO coordinates must be entered or observed in a clockwise direction to ensure the correct computation of the interior angles.

How to use Forums
Our forums on Land Surveyors United are here to be used as much for finding help with problems in the field as the are for you to express your opinions on anything that has to do with land surveying in general. Feel free to share anything that is on your mind, as long as it isn't meant to damage another member's reputation. Please keep it clean and help insure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of being part of a community that grows together.

We are committed to allowing freedom of expression for all of our members, and that includes maintaining a safe space for people with opposing views to express themselves. We get posts from all over the country and even the globe, so needless to say, people come with different viewpoints on lad surveying practices and processes. We see this diversity and variety as a real strength-- dialogue and debate are an integral part of the educational process, as well as an important tool in exploring different sides of complex issues.

All Community Hubs inside the community have their own forum for asking specific questions to other surveyors, by location, equipment type, etc.
