Running through my traverse using corner angle program in MAGNET Field. Discovered distance to end point is not a horizontal distance. What kind of crap is that?
That routine only Calcs the interior angle between three points.
Not sure what you are trying to say. We measure slope distance with EDM, using the vertical we can then calculate horizontal distance.

Thanks for replying, Lee! I was helping my party chief with his field notes. I used the corner angle program to give him the angles and distances to the traverse points. The corner angle program does give you distances. The distances are slope distances, not horizontal distances as I assumed they were. The results screen should indicate slope distance.
Just got done watching the video. Have to watch it again to understand all of the details.
