摘要:

AbstractThis paper attempts to analyse the usual accuracies which may be expected in the determination of distance by means of the subtense bar, and the improvement in accuracy consequent upon increasing the number of observations of the subtended angle, by examining sets of subtense observations taken by working surveyors under normal field conditions. Criteria for field rejections of outlying observations, and quick estimation of the expected accuracy by examining the range, are suggested. The tendency for outlying observations to occur early in a set, and the slightly high incidence of pairing of highest and lowest observations adjacent to each other are noted.Introduction.Theory.Sources of Samples.Values of Mean Square Errors: Before Rejections.The Rejection of Outlying Observations.Ranges.Recommended Criteria for Field Rejections.Estimate of Mean Square Error from Range.Incidence of Highest and Lowest Observations.Reliability of the Mean.Values of Mean Square Errors: After Rejections.Confidence Limits.Subtense Bar Traverses.Conclusion.

摘要:

AbstractAncient Metrology, a branch of archaeology, has been very neglected for many years, although it has so much to offer to anthropologists and ethnologists, archaeologists, geographers and historians alike. Probably no other science has suffered so much from crankery, guesswork and nescience in pedantry, combined to form dogmatism on one hand, and hypercritiscism on another.

摘要:

AbstractMore than 60 participants attended the fourth informal conference of teachers of surveying held in Ridge Hall, University of Birmingham on the 19th and 20th of December, 1967. Ridge Hall is part of the new Vale Site complex of residences, overlooking Edgbaston Park, it is most attractively sited, and provided an excellent venue for the meeting. Participants came from Departments of Surveying, Geography, Civil and Mining Engineering of the U.K. Universities and other institutions of higher education.

摘要:

AbstractThis somewhat unlikely combination of subjects came together at a Symposium in Vienna in March, 1967, and Mr. J. F. Bell, who attended the Meetings, sent us a report from which the following short notes have been compiled. The common denominator was Dr. Tengstrom who presides over each of the relevant I.A.G. study groups and wished to review the state of the art in both topics before the XIV I.U.G.G. General Assembly at Lucerne.
