-
A total of seven papers were presented during the
session.
-
Subjects discussed:
-
Arc seconds accuracy adjustment technique for
the split corner cube was presented by J.L. Oneto.
-
The system calibration capabilities and field
operation results of the Portable Calibration Standard have been
presented by the Prague group,
-
P. Sperber described the concept and construction
of the novel and compact laser rangefinder for sub-millimeter
ranging up to 100 meter distances.
-
M. Paunonen presented the new optical scheme for
SLR system calibration setup using the 1 m aperture Riga mount
and optics.
-
J. Long and P. Stevens described the local surveys
and its relationship to the system calibration and bias identification
at Goddard.
-
The general trend toward the millimeter ranging accuracy
has dominated the entire session.
-
The best SLR systems provide millimeter precision,
sub-millimeter stability and millimeter data sets consistency ranging
to ground targets.
