Run a Mean Angle Report
Run a Mean Angle Report to view details of how each mean angle was computed.
To run a Mean Angle Report:
- Select Reports > Report Options in the Quick Access Toolbar and then double-click Mean Angle Report.
- Right-click a mean angle node icon
in Project Explorer and select Mean Angle Report from the context menu. - Click the Report button in the Mean Angle Residuals dialog.
The Mean Angle Report displays in your default Web browser.
The Mean Angle Report includes a separate table for each mean angle in the project. At the top of each table, the point ID, station ID, and backsight ID are displayed. Beneath that, the table includes a row of information for each enabled observation used to compute the mean angle. Information includes observed readings and residual values for the horizontal angle, vertical angle, and slope distance. The last row in the table displays the computed horizontal angle, vertical angle, and slope distance for the mean angle point.
Note: In the Mean Angle Report, all angles are normalized to the range of 0 to 360 degrees expressed in project units. All distances are displayed in project units.
Note: To better estimate standard errors, the software removes collimation errors from the point pairs prior to calculating residuals for mean angles.
Tip: Click any point in the report to select it in the Project Explorer and graphical and spreadsheet views, and display its properties in the Properties pane.
To change report settings:
- Select Reports > Report Options in the Quick Access Toolbar.
