However, I am curious where you are that it is "very common in surverying". When I did quite a bit of reasearch on this ~8 years ago I did not find a single land surveyor that used gradians anywhere in europe...

The only use I could find was old, historical documents - nothing new.


Here's a discussion about this that you started 5 years ago. It seems to conclude that grads are still used in France (maybe elsewhere in Europe) and in polar aviation at least. It might not be "very common" but it sounds like it should be including in HP's flagship calculator certainly.
