Traverse Surveying Calculations Guide by Christian Jim Polleros is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) A traverse is a series of measured lines that form the boundary of an area. Computing the area inside a traverse requires reducing the measurements to a more useful form using techniques like graphical plotting or angular calculations. 2) For areas to be accurately computed, the interior angles of a closed traverse must total (n-2)×180 degrees, where n is the number of sides. Balancing angles helps identify any measurement errors. 3) Latitudes and departures provide another method to check for closure
