* the result of (IX q – X q3 + XI q5) is in seconds 4. Using the Grid to Geographic Tables, interpolate the value
• q = 0.000001(E – 500,000.00) = 0.000001(E’) of the footpoint (initial) latitude, Φ’. Do this by first finding the
nearest I to the given Northing: I1 < N < I2, Φ1 < Φ’ < Φ2

6. From the Grid to Geographic Tables, obtain the values of 8. Finally, solve for the longitude of the Station using the
the Roman Numerals VII, VIII, IX, X and XI corresponding to equation: λ = (IX) q – (X) q3 + (XI) q5 + λ CM
the computed footpoint latitude, Φ’. Again, this could be done * the result of (IX q - Xq3 + XI q5) is in seconds
by interpolation using the Diff. 1” column or by manual
interpolation.

• Δα = (λ-λCM) sin Φ (if only one point is given) • Δα = (Δλ) sin Φave (if two points forming a line are given)
where: Φ and λ are the latitude and longitude of the point; λCM is the where: Φ and λ are the latitude and longitude of the endpoints of the line;
longitude of the central meridian; (λ-λCM) is the difference of longitudes; Δλ is the difference between the longitudes of the endpoints of the line;
and Δα is the convergency correction. Φave is the average of the latitudes of two given points; and Δα is the
convergency correction.
The correction Δα is added to the computed grid azimuth
algebraically: True Azimuth = Grid Azimuth + Δα The correction Δα is added to the computed grid azimuth
algebraically: True Azimuth = Grid Azimuth + Δα
