This command takes a set of field and design/deed points and creates
an inverse report, such as radial stakeout, for each pair of points. It
includes a routine to find the best point to hold and the best point to
rotate to. This command provides tools for the correlation of surveyed
points
with that of deed input points. Different points can be
specified as hold points, or rotation points, and provide a report
showing the bearing and distance of all sides of the traverse/deed,
based upon the hold and rotation points. This allows for the
review of different scenarios based upon hold and rotation
points. Perhaps two points in the field are in good shape, and seem
to meet all the descriptions thereof. You decide to hold these two
points as good, but you would like to see what holding these points
will do to each side/call of the tract/description. This is
what this routine is designed to do. In addition to allowing user
specified trials of different hold and rotation points, the routine
also provides a Find Mininum Rotatation option that will report which
points specified as the hold and rotation points will result in the
minimum rotation of all sides of the tract/description. All points must
be contained in the same coordinate file, and the
points to be used in the correlation must be
specified as either Survey points or Deed points.
Edit:
This button allows for editing of the highlighted/selected Survey and
Deed
point. Once selected the dialog above is displayed allowing for
changes to be made.
Add: Click this button to
specify the points as either Survey or Deed points. Then fill out the
Edit Points dialog as desired.
Remove:
This button will remove the highlighted/selected Survey and Deed points
from
the correlation setup. This does not delete the points from the
coordinate file.
Inverse
Report: This generates a report showing the inverse data from
each
point, both survey and deed, to every other point specified in the
correlation set up. For example if there were four points in the
survey points (1-4) then the report would show inverse data from 1 to
2, 3,4; from 2 to 1,3,4; from 3 to 1,2,4 and from 4 to 1,2,3.
This would be the same for the corresponding deed points.
Compare Before Align: This
option compares the survey information to the deed information.
Check
Align: This option that allows for user specified hold and
rotation points,
and then reports the inverse data of each side of the
tract/description. The hold point and rotation point must be
points from the specified survey point group.
Find Min
Align: Determines the hold and rotation points that would
result in the minimum rotation to each side of the
tract/description. When selected the Minimum Deed Rotation
Report is displayed.
Apply Alignment: This
option can be issued after the Min Align criteria is set.
Save: Preforms a quick save
if the file has previously been saved.
Save As:
This option prompts for a user specified file name and allows for a
user
specified location to save the file. The file extension for the
deed correlation file is dcf. When executing the program you have
the option of using an existing file or creating a new file for the
deed correlation.
Exit: This button end the
routine.
Help:
This button displays the help topics relating to the Deed Correlation
routine.
After specifying the hold and rotation points, the deed correlation report will display again, showing the bearing and distace of each side of the tract/description.
