line in the opposite direction in order that the so-called Fertsch effect
should come into view.
At 185 points indicated on the map, the measuring of elevation was
carried out. The elevation of the 185 arbitrarily chosen points had earlier
been determined by geodetic measuring with a tachymeter.
Analysis of accuracy
The planimetric plotting was examined in the following way:
1. The coordinates were transformed (Helmert) to the geodetic system
using the control points of the models as given points. Table 3 shows
the coordinate standard error in the transformation points as well as in
the eight signalled control points.

According to tests on the Öland field (Moren, 1967) the geodetic share
in the standard errors has been calculated by quadratic subtraction. This
gave 0.027 metres for the whole material.
2. Regarding other planimetric details (about 120 points), no compari-
son was made with the geodetic measuring. The object of the analysis
was to show the differences between various stereo plottings and within
the same stereo plotting. The planimetric details were divided into
groups and the precision of the situation is shown in Table 4.
