  2. Observational error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observational_error

    In survey-type situations, these errors can be mistakes in the collection of data, including both the incorrect recording of a response and the correct recording of a respondent's inaccurate response.

  4. Error analysis for the Global Positioning System - Wikipedia

    These delayed signals cause measurement errors that are different for each type of GPS signal due to its dependency on the wavelength. [4] A variety of techniques, most notably narrow correlator spacing, have been developed to mitigate multipath errors. For long delay multipath, the receiver itself can recognize the wayward signal and discard it.

  5. Tape correction (surveying) - Wikipedia

    [1] [2] In this case, errors arise when the tape is pulled at a Tension which differs from the standard tension used at standardization. The tape will pulled less than its standard length when a tension less than the standard tension is applied, making the tape too long.

  7. Real-time kinematic positioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_kinematic...

    A surveyor uses a GNSS receiver with an RTK solution to accurately locate a parking stripe for a topographic survey. Real-time kinematic positioning (RTK) is the application of surveying to correct for common errors in current satellite navigation (GNSS) systems. [1]

  8. Repetition method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repetition_method

    In surveying, the repetition method is used to improve precision and accuracy of measurements of horizontal angles. The same angle is measured multiple times, with the survey instrument rotated so that systematic errors tend to cancel. The arithmetic mean of these observations gives true value of an angle.

  9. Coverage error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coverage_error

    Coverage errors in the U.S. Census have the potential impact of allowing people groups to be underrepresented by the government. Of particular concern are "differential undercounts" which are underestimates of targeted demographic groups.
