This study examined the impact of trivial baselines obtained from GNSS single-baseline processing into a network adjustment in terms of accuracy and estimated coordinates sets. To this end, depending on the inclusion of the dependent baselines, three different types of experimental GNSS networks were composed and adjusted. The results showed that the networks including the trivial baselines are generally overestimated, but differences in the derived coordinates are limited at the millimeter level. A comparison of the adjusted coordinates with those published by the national geodetic agency showed that results of the network consisting of only the independent baselines are more constant than those of the networks with trivial baselines. Finally, a trivial baseline should be excluded from the GNSS network adjustment with a consideration of the realistic accuracy presentation and data processing burden.

In this study, conventional network adjustment and combined network adjustment methods for single network adjustment methods for single network and centric combination network were compared by the analysis of root mean square error and standard error ellipse of observed points. It can be concluded from this study that for conventional surveying methods, the accuracy is in theorder of trilateration, traverse and triangulation, and for the case of combined surveying method, the accuracy is in the order of multilateration surveying, combined traverse and combined triangulation-trilateration surveying. And when establishing new control points, the accuracy can be improved by increasing redundant observations of centric combination network instead of using the single network. Also, in case of combined traverse surveying by adding observable laterals, accuracy level of trilateration could be achieved, and it was found that traverse is effective for large areas where sighting is easy, and combined traverse surveying is effective for urban areas where sighting is difficult.

The objective of GPS control surveying is ultimately to determine coordinate sets of control points within targeted accuracy through a series of observations and network adjustments. To this end, it is of equivalent importance for the accuracy of these coordinates to be realistically represented by using an appropriate method. The accuracy representation can be quantitively made by the variance-covariance matrices of the estimates, of which features are sensitive to the mathematical models used in the adjustment. This paper deals with impact of functional and stochastic modeling techniques into the accuracy representation of the GPS control surveying with a view of gaining background for its standardization. In order to achieve this goal, mathematical theory and procedure of the single-baseline based multi-session adjustment has been rigorously reviewed together with numerical analysis through processing real world data. Based on this study, it was possible to draw a conclusion that weighted-constrained adjustment with the empirical stochastic model was among the best scheme to more realistically describe both of the absolute and relative accuracies of the GPS surveying results.

This study aimed to estimate accuracy of GPS/Leveling and to present availability of GPS/Leveling in public surveying. For this purpose, we carried out GPS survey for bench marks and control points of Hongsung area. Orthometric heights calculated by two GPS/Leveling methods were compared to reference height. The one is calculated by base of geoid models such as EGM96, OSU91A, KGEOID99, and the other is calculated by network adjustment using fixed point. The results of GPS/Leveling by geoid models show that RMSE of EGM96 is ${\pm}0.061m,\;OSU91A\;{\pm}0.725m,\;KGEOID99\;{\pm}0.598m$. The results of GPS/Leveling by network adjustment show that the best RMSE is ${\pm}0.043m$ in case of using three fixed bench mark, and this method can be used for leveling effectively. GPS/Leveling would be able to apply in forth order public leveling and height determination of public control points.

According to the Korean datum change to a world geodetic system, the EDM area should be readjusted to provide consistent product over the country. The data set for EDM area is extracted from the previous KTN1987 DB and checked for the moved markers in XY network adjustment which provides quality verification. Then, EDM data set for the seven areas are rebuilt for the adjustment. Since the data is still based on the old datum, the coordinates of the data are transformed by applying the coordinate transformation parameters. Here, the transformation parameters, which were determined for the conversion of 1:50,000 topographic maps by NGII, were used. For each EDM point, the geoidal height from EGM96 model is applied to obtain the ellipsoidal height based on the GRS80. The measured distance projected onto GRS80 is adjusted using BL network adjustment by fixing 2nd order or 3rd order GPS control points. The results from the readjustment show the minimum standard error of 1.37" and the maximum standard error of 2.13". Considering the measurement accuracy of EDM (1.6" corresponding to about 2cm) and GPS position for fixed points (2cm), this result is considered to be reasonable and it is good for the practical use.

The coordinate of cadastral control points located over the area of different surveying origins is computed in a single surveying origin by trilateration adjustment of GPS baseline measurements. In every different surveying origins, well-matched control points are selected and mutually coinciding coordinates are computed by free network adjustment. Then, the coordinate of the other control points over the area is computed by joining these points to the adjusted points. In practice, by using 18 points of Gari, 17 points of Gyeyang, and 33 points of Central origin in Incheon, the coordinates of total 68 points in every surveying origin are computed. Between the points of different surveying origins, it is found that there are quantitative differences in azimuth and scale factors and the approximate point coordinate of other surveying origins is calculated by correcting the scale and azimuth.

This paper focuses on examining and evaluating results of the Korean Geodetic Datum 2002 (KGD2002) of the national horizontal network adjustment. To this end, 137 geodetic control points were independently observed by GPS technology. After processing all the observations, their results were compared with ones derived by the national network adjustment which was recently performed to determine new KGD 2002 coordinate sets over the national geodetic control points. The comparisons results showed that RMSE was ${\pm}2.7cm$ and ${pm}6.5cm$ in horizontal and vertical component in the case of GPS network, whereas RMSE was ${\pm}3.0cm$, in horizontal component in the case of EDM network.

Orthogonal decomposition technique, not using normal equation, but using observation equation directly, is accepted for adjusting the geodetic network in this paper. The results of study show that the technique is the numerically stable and powerful method in network adjustment by inner constraints or weighted position parameters. Also, it is suitable to middle sized-network and is applicable to Cholesky Factor in the normal equation system.

This paper planned for the adjustment of unified control points by compared adjusted software for integrated network and the national integrated network. There may be some errors in the survey date and interpretation of data processing due to applying different software each year. To minimize errors, we performed a precision network adjustment by consolidating control points per observation session over years. Prior to perform the integrated network adjustment with the GPS analysis program (GLOBK) for the final integrated network adjustment, the Quasi-Observation Combination Analysis(QOCA), the Global Kalman filter VLBI and the GLOBK were compared and analyzed to perform an integrated network adjustment. The integrated network adjustment result indicates that the RMSE was rather big with ±0.03m along the vertical axis, but ±0.006m along the horizontal, that is not much different from the existing result.
