Variance Component Analysis
3. CONCLUSION
The currently implemented mathematical model for the analysis of Mekometer
distances as explained in section two is sufficient but should be extended to the model
described in section 2.3. if other EDM instruments with less accuracy have to be calibrated
and compared to Mekometer data. The expanded model covers most possible cases for
analyzing baseline measurements and is therefore more flexible
All ME5000 instruments participating in the 1992 measurement campaign on the
SLAC baseline fell within the defined accuracy range provided by KERN.
