This hub brings together the field-maths and pit-production tools a surveyor reaches for between the instrument and the plan: coordinate geometry, levelling reductions, traverse checks and the volume-to-tonnes conversions that reconciliation depends on. Picking the right tool hinges on knowing which direction you are working in — grid coordinates to bearing and distance versus the reverse — and on keeping angle formats (DMS versus decimal degrees) straight before a single value is trusted.
Coordinate geometry: which way are you solving?
Use bearing-distance-to-coordinates when you have a setup point plus a shot and need the far coordinate; flip to coordinates-to-bearing-distance to derive the join between two known points, and close a figure or check a boundary with area-by-coordinates.
Angle and coordinate format conversions
Convert instrument DMS readings to decimal degrees before any trig, and swap between latitude/longitude and other coordinate expressions when moving data between GPS, plans and software.
Levelling and traverse checks
Reduce a level run with the rise-and-fall worksheet, then quantify how well a traverse closes: misclose gives the linear error, closure ratio expresses it as 1-in-N for spec compliance, and grade-and-fall handles set-out falls.
Mine production and volume reconciliation
Convert between bank, loose and tonnes for haulage and reconciliation, size a blast or bench volume, and check strip ratio or swell when reporting mined material.
Common tasks
- Turn a total-station bearing and distance into pickup coordinates
- Check whether a traverse closes to spec (misclose and 1-in-N ratio)
- Reduce a rise-and-fall level run and compute a boundary area
- Convert bank cubic metres to loose volume and tonnes for reconciliation
- Size blast and bench volumes and check strip ratio
