Evaluation of Compatibility among Network Adjustment Software - Results from the JAG3D software package

<p>Together with colleagues from Conservatoire National des Arts et M&eacute;tiers (CNAM), European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN),&nbsp;and School of Management and Engineering Vaud (HEIG-VD), we evaluated the compatibility among network adjustment software packages.&nbsp;A detailed description of the procedure and the results was presented at the 5th Joint International Symposium on Deformation Monitoring&nbsp;JISDM 2022.</p> <p>We compared the results of several geodetic networks using software packages developed by the authors&#39; institutions, namely Compensation de Mesures Topographiques (CoMeT), Logiciel G&eacute;n&eacute;ral de Compensation (LGC), Trinet+ as well as JAG3D. Moreover,&nbsp;we included further commercial software packages such as Columbus, Geolab, Move3 and Star*Net. The networks differ mainly in&nbsp;their extent, i.e. the side length and the height. Whereas the smallest network is about 30 m, the largest network under consideration is about 40 km. The height component varies in a range from 30 m to 2.5 km. The raw data and the obtained results can be found on the official CNAM website <a href="https://comet.esgt.cnam.fr/comparisons">comet.esgt.cnam.fr/comparisons</a>.&nbsp;This data set contains the raw data, the JAG3D database as well as the adjustment results.</p>
