ESTIMATION OF THE ACCURACY OF THE ELEMENTS OF AN ASTRONOMO-GEODETIC NETWORK COMPOSED OF POLYGON LINKS,

Abstract

Until recently astronomo-geodetic networks were always composed of triangulation links. Since the introduction of highly accurate photo and radio rangefinders, the polygon method has begun to be used for the same purpose. However, the problems of estimating the accuracy of these constructions have not yet received much attention. This article is devoted to an examination of the accuracy of an astronomo-geodetic network composed of such links, taking into account the errors in the starting azimuths.
