is the projection on a north and south lines. It may be called as north or positive latitude and south or negative latitude.

is the projection on the east and west lines. West departure is sometimes called negative departure and east departure is sometimes called positive departure.

in any closed traversed, there is always an error. No survey is geometrically perfect, until proper adjustments are made. For a closed traversed, the sum of north and south latitudes should always be zero.

the correction to be applied to the latitude or departure of any course is to the total correction in latitude or departure as the length of the course is to the length of the traverse.

the correction to be applied to the latitude or departure of any courses is to the total correction in latitude or departure as the latitude or departure of course is to the arithmetical sum of all the latitudes or departures in the traverse without regards to sign.

a method for extending horizontal control for topographic and similar surveys which require observations of triangular figures whose angles are measured and whose sides are determined by trigonometric computations.
