Abstract

This chapter reports current activities and recent progress in the field of geodetic deformation analysis if a refined uncertainty budget is considered. This is meaningful in the context of a thorough system-theoretical assessment of geodetic monitoring and it leads to a more complete formulation of the modeling and analysis chain. The work focuses on three major topics: the mathematical modeling of an extended uncertainty budget, the adequate adaptation of estimation and analysis methods, and the consequences for one outstanding step of geodetic deformation analysis – the test of a linear hypothesis. The essential outcome is a consistent assessment of the quality of the final decisions such as the significance of a possible deformation.
