About this course

A compact, exam-ready walkthrough of the two classic ways to compute the area enclosed by a closed traverse. An eight-station figure with known eastings and northings is solved first by the coordinate (cross-multiplication) method and then by the Double Meridian Distance method, so you can see exactly why both routes land on the same answer.

  • Both the coordinate and D.M.D. methods on one figure
  • Tabulated working you can reproduce under exam conditions
  • Perfect companion to any traverse-adjustment course
