Models provide a connection between abstract concepts and human experience. In the context of spatial data, models give relevance and meaning to the concepts of location and geometrical relationships. Two kinds of models are used in this topic: functional models and stochastic models. Functional Models Functional models consist of physical, geometrical, mechanical, electrical, and other […]
The theory of error propagation is derived in topics such as Mikhail (1976) and Wolf and Ghilani (1997), and is presented concisely in matrix form as where Error propagation involves calculus and is used to answer the question “If something is computed on the basis of a measurement and the measurement contains uncertainty, how is […]
