Abstract

This paper presents the way in which a general adjustment program was written for three dimensional networks at CERN. It describes the solutions which were adopted in developing an adjustment procedure based on the local geoid, and the constraints which existed regarding the generality of the program's application. The eleven types of observation currently permissible are given, together with a short description of some of the more "exotic" ones, which are peculiar to CERN. The input procedure, with its free-format convention and the system of key-words, is described, as is the information presented to the program user in the form of output.

Former CERN technical student 1984–1985
