Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are given three point measurements with their respective horizontal and vertical coordinates. Use the least squares method to adjust them and provide a revised coordinate set.

💡 Hint: Focus on minimizing the total square deviations!

Question 2

Given a survey loop, calculate the needed traverse closure correction when the initial coordinates do not correspond to the final return to the origin point.

💡 Hint: What happens when your starting and ending points mismatch?
