Traverse Computations and Area Determination

Reduce a closed traverse end to end, converting bearings and azimuths, computing latitudes and departures, checking the linear error of closure and relative precision, balancing by the compass and transit rules, finding area by DMD, DPD, and coordinates, and solving a missing side, the traverse-reduction core of the 17%-weighted Surveying and Transportation module on the CELE.
