Traverse Tool - Closure Direction

[AbigailSmith18]

ArcGIS Pro Traverse Tool does not give the Misclose Direction if a survey entered in the Traverse Tool does not close. The ArcMap Traverse Tool generated a Closure Report containing Misclose Distance and Direction. Could a Closure Report containing both Misclose Distance and Direction be automatically generated by the ArcGIS Pro Traverse tool? Or could Misclose Direction be added to the Misclose information box in the Traverse Tool?

Hi @NabilDroby1 

Thank you for the response. We have some further questions about Misclosure As X/Y.

We have seen and understand the reasoning for adding the Direction as as part of the Misclosure As Direction/Distance, but we'd still like some further information on the value of also including the Misclosure As X/Y.

It's the same information in a different form. We are trying to avoid adding too much information in this part of the UI unless it's absolutely necessary. Are there any negative impacts to your workflows and requirements if the Misclose as XY were not present?

With regards to your other request to be able to check the misclosure along the way, would you please create a new idea for that?

Thanks, Tim

Hi @TimHodson 

I agree that the Misclosure as XY is the same as the Misclosure as Direction/Distance when ending at the starting point, but it's different if we want to check for closure when we have surveys that have more coordinated points and then we can plug in the start and end coordinates to quick check for closures along the traverse. It's not that crucial as the Direction/Distance, but it's sometimes useful. I posted a new idea as you requested https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-parcel-fabric-ideas/arcgis-pro-traverse/idi-p/1580941

Thank you,

@NabilDroby1  thanks for confirming that the misclose as X & Y is not crucial. From our perspective, adding information that cannot help only clutters the UI and adds confusion. The direction and distance, on the other hand, can help identify the course in which the blunder might have occurred.

ArcGIS Pro 3.5 will display the misclose direction and distance:

Tip: you can always right-click to copy this information for 'safekeeping'.
