To List the Slope Angle Between Existing Points

Use the Slope Angle command to determine the slope angle between two points.

To list the slope angle between two points in the Survey Command Window

1. In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click a named network Survey Command Window.
2. In the Survey Command Window, click Point Information menu Slope Angle.
3. Enter the point identifier of the start point.
4. Enter the point identifier of the ahead point.

To list the slope angle between two points at the Command line in the Survey Command Window

1. In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click a named network Survey Command Window.
2. At the command line, enter:

   SLOPE [point 1] [point 2]

Command Line Example

The following example shows a valid entry using the Slope command:

NEZ 1 100 100 30.480

NEZ 2 200 200 33.528

SLOPE 1 2

Slope angle: 1.3719

This example determines the slope angle between point 1 and point 2. When used as a built-in function, this command supplies the vertical angle in the current vertical reference system (zenith, nadir, or horizontal).
