Based on the generally accepted assumption that the propagation
of errors of the various elements of orientation seem to have a
systematic appearance, it could be deduced that the propagation of
errors in the quasi-observations is also systematic in appearance.**
Figure 7 shows schematically the propagation of the errors in the four
quasi-observations.
The elements of the quasi-observations, as shown, in Figure 'J,
are as follows: Initial errors (dS dK , d Cd and d CD) and
o 7 o ° / O
differential errors (increments per model) in the quasi-observations
(Ss,d AK„d/\CO J di'y)- These elements can be determined from
Figure 7 with the knowledge of the error in the quasi-observations
(dS| > dS^ ;dK|; dK^ , d (J>| dO^ > d Pi | and diBX)) of the end bases
