The projection coordinates of two BMs (A and B), distance, and observed angle to
point C are given as follow :

Easting (m) Northing (m) Zone

BM A 385,003.881 6,299,402.777 51

BM B 386,638.192 6,298,299.763 51

Ellipsoidal distance, sBC = 2,077.554

Observed angle on BM B, OAC= 175º 03′ 46.881″
Find the projection coordinates of point C using the methods of:

1. traversing on the projection surface

2. traversing on the ellipsoidal surface

A. Traversing on the projection surface

Step 1
Compute θBA the plane bearing from BM B to BM A.

θBA = tan-1 (-1,634.311 )

1,103.014
θBA= -0.02585

Step 2
Compute ẟBA the arc-to-chord correction at B, from B to A

ẟ”BA= -0.127x10-8(1,103.014)(771,642.073-106)
ẟ”BA= 0.31989

Step 3
Compute βBC the grid bearing from BM B to point C

βBC = 175.0630225- |-0.02585| - |0.31989|

βBC = 174.7173

Step 4
Compute the point scale factor at BM B using Redfearn’s formulae:
So, KB = 0.9997584
Step 5
Compute approximate coordinates of C using planar trigonometry

ˆEc = 386,829.427

ˆNc = 6,296,231.533

Step 6
Compute arc-to-chord correction at B to C:

ẟ”BC= -0.5950217179

Step 7
Compute plane bearing from B to C

θBC = 174.7173 + -0.5950217179

θBC = 174.1223

Step 8
Compute approximate point scale factor at C using Redfearn’s formulae:

So The kc= 0.9997579

Step 9
Compute line scale factor over baseline BC:

KBC = 1/2 (0.9997584 + 0.9997579)

KBC = 0.9997582

Step 10
Compute chord distance over baseline BC:

lBC = 0.9997582 . 2,077.55

lBC = 2077.051579
Step 11
Compute better projection coordinates of C

EC = 386,638.192 + 2077.051579 sin(174.1223)

EC = 386,850.895

NC = 6,298,299.763 + 2077.051579 cos(174.1223)

NC = 6,296,233.631

Step 1
Calculate U1, U2 and L, and set initial value of λ = L. Then iteratively evaluate the
following equations until λ converges:
