Knightwood Three Point Resection Calculator

Calculating the resection of a point is a mathematical method used in engineering surveying to determine the foreign position of a point based on the measuring angles of the known locations. These measurements can be done with a compass, total station as well as a nautical or topographical map, depending on your profession and the project's needs.
Knightwood Three Point Resection Calculator is a lightweight application that enables you to find the position of a point by taking into account the two horizontal angles between three points coordinates.

Clean interface and intuitive functionality

The utility includes a clean and organized UI and displays all available functions and features in its main window. More precisely, the interface comes with a dedicated section where you can add the known coordinates for the points you made the angular measurements for. You can also add the new point's ID in the box located in the upper section of the GUI.
Once you introduced this data, you can simply hit the Calculate angles button and the application automatically displays the easting, northing and the angles between the points.

Comes with a plot that enables you to preview the point's location

It is worth mentioning that the program includes a small panel that permits you to preview the positions of the known and undiscovered points. Even though the preview panel is relatively small, the feature can come in handy for special projects, such as creating a map for a road alignment for instance.
On a side note, you should know that the limitation here is that you need to make sure the points used to calculate the resection need to form a triangle. Then again, the unknown point's position can be inside or outside the triangle.

A surveying tool that can save you time and energy

Regardless of whether you are working on a project for a construction site or in civil engineering, Knightwood Three Point Resection Calculator can lend you a hand with computing the data so you can learn the position of an unknown point that can be vital in a project such as a road construction scheme for instance.
