Basic research and data analysis for the National Geodetic Satellite Program

Investigations of triangulation nets and scaling are reported. Adjustment of the BC-4 worldwide geometric satellite triangulation net is described, along with procedures for correcting type II data and the contents of magnetic tapes containing data from the Pageos network. Computational steps for the further reduction of partially reduced satellite image plate coordinates are outlined. The problem of improving existing triangulation systems by means of satellite super-control points was studied. The SAO-69 geometric solution was scaled with C-band radar data, resulting in SAO and C-band adjustment compatible with one another in the Western Hemisphere. The North America solution NA-6, obtained from GEOS 1 data, was readjusted with new heights as constraints on all 30 optical stations and is referred to as the NA-8 solution.
