Zusammenfassung:Sophisticated systems such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Inertial Positioning System (IPS) are not yet economically justified for widespread Coast Guard use in positioning aids to navigation. To improve accuracy and precision in positioning until such systems are justified, alternative procedures have been explored. Accuracy and precision are addressed to create various mathematical, statistical and operational procedures immediately applicable to the Coast Guard. This adventure into marine geodesy can help the Coast Guard employ error minimizing positioning procedures until more precise methods and reliable techniques are available. (Author)
