Tools & Monitoring II
- Ina Pschorn (GSI)
LGC (Logiciel Général de Compensation) is a software that computes position estimates and associated statistics based on observations obtained by CERN surveyors. Since the mid-1980s, LGC has been a crucial tool to perform geodetic computations in various contexts - from simple levelling campaigns to advanced monitoring projects. The CERN Geodetic Metrology group continues to maintain, improve,...
ToLiP, or minimum set of situation features made of (at most) a poinT On a Line In a Plane, has been introduced as an intermediate object between any integral feature's geometry and the coordinate system representing its situation (location and orientation). CoToLiP is the tool to deal with the composition of two ToLiPs. The paper gives background on how this is built and used to encode...
