Prediction of position errors of points in first order trigonometric network

Abstract

During the establishment of first order trigonometric network in Serbia, the influence of Earth’s gravitational field on measurements was not considered. As a consequence, all points have position errors. With additional measurements and calculations, these errors were later determined for X and Y coordinates of each point. This paper uses geostatistical methods (regression kriging) to estimate error prediction model for any location in Serbia.
