Intersection methods Description
Bearing & bearing Calculates the intersection point of two lines.
A line is def
ined by a point and a direction.
Elements that must be known are
•
the co
ordinates of two points.
•
the direction from these known points to
the COGO point.
•
offsets if necessary and configured.
The coordinates of the known points
•
can be taken from the job.
•
can be manually measured during the
COGO calculation.
•
can be entered.
Points with full coordinate triplets and posi-
tion o
nly points can be used. Position only is
calculated, height can be typed in.
Distance & distance Calculates the intersection point of two cir-
cles. T
he circles are defined by the known
point as the centre point and the distance
from the known point to the COGO point as
the radius.
