Proposal for a comprehensive study of electronic total station

The paper shows how to conduct a comprehensive study of the accuracy of the measurements made with an electronic total station TRIMBLE 5602 DR 200 +. The results of the measurements of lenghts, horizontal angles and elevations were examined.Measurements were performed on a test network of the Agricultural University in Krakow and the results of mathematical statistics methods have been developed to detect the presence of any irregularities in them. Statistical surveys of these three groups of measurements were performed in order to check if their distributions of errors correspond to the normal distribution. This determines the accuracy of test measurements and the usefulness of the tested total station for the performance surveying. To study the accuracy of length measurements a statistical ABBE test of compliance were used.Measurements of angular and elevations were tested using the test of identity:- for measuring of horizontal angles MANN-WHTNEY-WILCOXON test was used- for measurements of elevations - SERIES test To verify the results of these three statistical tests - all measuring groups were studied with tests parameters.1/ S-factor asymmetry (skewness) 2/ e - flattening factor (excess, newfangled). From the measurements and statistical studies drew the conclusions on the correctness of the results ...

Analysis of the precision of static satellite measurements made with the TRIMBLE NETR9 receiver

The paper presents the method of testing the precision and accuracy of satellite measurements made with the Trimble NetR9 receiver model with a Zephyr Geodetic Model 2 antenna (TRM55971.00 TZGD), which was additionally equipped with a snow shield. The tests covered the results of static measurements in the form of geocentric coordinates XYZ, calculated with the automatic POZGEO service, operating under the ASG-EUPOS system. The observations were made in measuring sessions of 1h, 2h, and 3h. The statistical tests were conducted to check if the distributions of their errors correspond to normal distribution, which would determine the accuracy of the performed test calculations and measurements, and consequently the usefulness of the tested satellite receiver in geodetic surveys. The correctness tests of the executed measurements and calculations applied three statistical tests: the parametric test, the D' Kolmogorov statistic, and the V and V' Kuiper statistics. The conducted analyses and studies provided conclusions on the correctness of the survey and calculation results and the usefulness of the tested measurement system in the execution of various geodetic operations. ...
