differences of the coordinates (the systematic contribution to the differences)
then the root mean square values followed by maximum of the differences of the
coordinates after eliminating the systematic part of the differences. Consider-
ing the standard errors of unit weight for different adjustments in table 1 the
differences in table 2 can be regarded as normal and they are so small that the
results of the two computations of photographs at the same scale, A and B, can
be considered equivalent.
Standard error of unit weight of the adjustment
The standard error of unit weight on which all investigations of accuracy are
based, varies between 4.6 - 6.8 in microns and between 1.6 - 8.2 in centimeters.
(Table 1). The figures vary a little for different computations in each series
but these variations have practically no significance. One characteristic is
that whereas the standard error of unit weight in microns usually decreases as
the image scale becomes smaller, in this case the standard error increases and
is at a minimum for the largest scale.
Discrepancies between the given geodetic control points and photogrammetric
field of points
As was mentioned in the introduction the discrepancies between the control
points, whose geodetic coordinates are known, and analytically determined pho-
togrammetric coordinates can be computed after the adjustment from the coordi-
nate residuals of image coordinates of each photograph.
