Use Input Point From Next Row
Assume
that a user loads a point file with 5 points (A-E), one point per row,
each with Latitude and Longitude values into the grid. The user has set
up four columns (C1-C4).
The user has selected to
Output
the ahead azimuth to C3
and the distance to C4.
The user has also selected “Use
Input Point From Next Row”.
Point
A in Row R1 (Latitude = column C1, Longitude = column C2)
Point
B in Row R2 (Latitude = column C1, Longitude = column C2)
Point
C in Row R3 (Latitude = column C1, Longitude = column C2)
Etc.
Upon
hitting the Inverse
button, the Calculator will compute the azimuth and distance between
Point A (R1)
and (R2)
and write the results to the specified cells in R2.
Next,
it will take R2
and R3
(i.e. the next row) and calculate the inverse values between them
and write the results to the specified cells in R3. Remember: The
results are written to the next row when
“Use
Input Point…” is selected. The output cells in
R1
will be left blank.
