Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aero-space vehicle guidance systems with accuracies superior to the capabilities of conventional geodetic measuring techniques, are generating requirements for geodetic positioning information. In addition, as measuring techniques are developed that approach the desired results, the improvement in precision of measurement becomes limited by uncertainties in knowledge of environmental factors affecting measurement accuracy, i.e. , atmospheric refraction. Geodetic experiments with specially instrumented satellites have already returned several types of significant, useful data, that compare favorably with existing geodetic information in positional accuracy and offer advantages in range of measurement.
