Hello - I am having some trouble using the traverse tool to convert a legal description of a road easement into a shape. I've already contacted technical support and am waiting for an answer, but I wanted to ask the Community as well. I am trying to convert the legal description seen in attachment 1 into a feature using the traverse tool. I know the basics of this tool (how to express direction in a QB system and the length of the line), but do not know how to input the highlighted sections. Could someone help me with the nomenclature for the traverse tool when creating curves described in this way?
Thanks!
Those sound like delta angles. On the Traverse tool, click the dropdown at Arc Length and change that to Delta Angle and enter the angles they give. I would assume the curves to be tangent to the preceding segment, too, meaning you can leave the bearing the same.
Thank you! Do I need to do anything for "right"/"left" and do I need to put the length in the Distance field or Radius field? I appreciate the quick response.
