Hydropower plants are objects which horizontal and vertical displacement must be monitored regularly. Method used for determination of horizontal displacements of the Hydropower plant Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and its practical execution are presented. Algorithms for regular adjustment of indirect measurements and S-transformations into optimal datum are also presented in this paper. Further, regular adjustments of indirect measurements of the reference and control point coordinates in the conventional dat...

When determining height differences by using trigonometric levelling method, some affecting values are present. Besides measuring imperfection due to instrumental imperfection and surveyorпїЅs errors, quality of the trigonometric levelling results also depends on following external affecting values: height difference between observed points, distance between observed points and temperature gradient (change of temperature with height) between observed points. Therefore, if the height difference is bigger, the influ...

Free geodetic networks are networks of points which absolute coordinates are not known, but only their relative position in relation to each other. This network is invariant to translation and rotation, and possibly a change in the scale. Degrees of freedom of this type of network cause singularity of the normal equations coefficient matrix N, therefore the use of general inverse is required, and the most commonly used is Moore-Penrose inverse or pseudoinverse. This paper presents available commercial software whi...

The calibration baseline of the Faculty of Geode sy, University of Zagreb, is the longest calibration baseline in the world numbering altogether 25 pillars. It was built in 1982 for the purpose of testing and calibrating the electro-optical distance meters, and today even GNSS instruments can be tested there. Th is calibration baseline provided a mutual standard scale for the calibration of instruments at the distance up to 3100 m in the Republic of Croatia and wider region. In this paper the determination of coor...
