To Create an Arc/Azimuth Survey Intersection

To calculate the intersection of an arc and a line determined by an azimuth in the Survey Command Window

1. In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click the network to edit, and click Survey Command Window.
2. Click Intersection menu Arc/Azimuth.
3. Enter the point number of the arc center.
4. Enter the radius of the arc.
5. Enter the starting point number of the line.
6. Enter the azimuth of the line.
7. Enter an offset.
8. Enter one of the following options:
   • N: To select the northern-most intersection.
   • S: To select the southern-most intersection.
   • E: To select the eastern-most intersection.
   • W: To select the western-most intersection.
   • R: To select the nearest intersection.
   • F: To select the farthest intersection.
   • 1: To select intersection 1.
   • 2: To select intersection 2.
   • A: To select all the intersections.
   • P: To pick the intersection with your pointing device.

To calculate the intersection of an arc and a line determined by an azimuth, using the survey command language

1. In Toolspace, on the Survey tab, right-click the network to edit, and click Survey Command Window.
2. At the Command line, enter:

   ARCAZ [point] [radius] [point 1] [azimuth] [offset]

Command Line Example

NE 1 100 100

NE 2 200 200

ARCAZ 2 200 1 50 50

! INTERSECTION # 1 NORTH:274.411634 EAST:385.641883

! INTERSECTION # 2 NORTH:30.099879 EAST:94.482471

Intersections are located between an arc radius of 200 with its center at point 2 and an azimuth of 50.0000 drawn from point 1 with an offset distance of 50 to the right.
