2022 Pilgrim's Trail formation
|
Reconstruction of the 2022 Pilgrim's Trail formation | ||
| 1. |
| Draw a circle. Draw and extend the horizontal and vertical centerlines. |
| 2. |
| Construct the inscribed regular 19-sided polygon of circle 1, pointing up. |
| 3. |
| Construct a circle centered at the lower lefthand angular point of polygon 2, passing through the lower intersection of circle 1 and the vertical centerline. |
| 4. |
| Copy circle 3 to the top of polygon 2. |
| 5. |
| Draw the connecting line between the intersections of circle 4 and the vertical centerline. |
| 6. |
| Divide line 5 into twelve equal parts. Number the nodes 1 - 11 from top to bottom. |
| 7. |
| Construct six circles concentric to circle 1, passing through nodes 6 nrs. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11. See detail. |
|
| ||
| 8. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, passing through node 6 nr. 4. |
| 9. |
| Copy circle 8 two times, the first to the lefthand intersection of circles 1 and 4, the second to the righthand intersection of the first and circle 1. |
| 10. |
| Copy circle 3 to the angular point of polygon 2 next to the top at the lefthand side. See detail. |
|
| ||
| 11. |
| Construct three circles concentric to circle 10, passing through the other intersections of circles 1 and 9. |
| 12. |
| Copy circle 3 to the center of circle 1. |
| 13. |
| Copy circle 3 four times, the first to the upper intersection of circle 4 and the vertical centerline, the next ones to the corresponding intersections of every previous one. |
| 14. |
| Construct a circle concentric to circle 4, passing through node 6 nr. 5. See detail. |
|
| ||
| 15. |
| Copy circle 14 to the upper intersection of the upper circle 13 and the vertical centerline. |
| 16. |
| Construct two circles concentric to circle 1, tangent to circle 15 at both sides. See detail. |
|
| ||
| 17. |
| Copy circles 10 and 11 fifteen times, to the other angular points of polygon 2, except for the top and the two lowest ones. |
| 18. |
| Circles 7, 10, 11, 12, 16, and 17, are used for the final reconstruction. |
| 19. |
| Remove all parts not visible within the formation itself. |
| 20. |
| Colour all areas corresponding to standing... |
| 21. |
| ...or to flattened crop, and finish the reconstruction of the 2022 Pilgrim's Trail formation. |
| 22. |
| The final result, matched with two aerial images. |
