Question

In case of angular measurements being more precise than linear measurements, the traverse can be balanced by:

• A. Graphical method
• B. Bowditch rule
• C. Transit rule
• D. east-squares method

Hint:

The least-squares method provides the most accurate traverse adjustment by balancing errors in angular and linear measurements.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Traverse adjustment employs the least-squares method when angular measurements are more precise than linear ones. This technique minimizes the sum of squared residuals, thereby optimizing the adjustment of both linear and angular observations.
