991029 report

Inclinometry - little change


SUMMARY
CW Inclinometry was taken during the day 29 Oct 1999. There are only slight changes since the last run on 13 Oct .


   Datasets     HST start      mean leg temperatures   Humidity
                               start   middle   end       %
 ( inc991013 cw   11:50         6.8     8.1     8.8      20 )
   inc991029 cw   10:55         4.2     5.2     6.2      20

The differences between these clockwise models is shown below :

  • Difference spikes at azimuths 33, 249, 280 and 300 were evident last time also and are not inherent to the new data.

  • The differences in the (F1,F2,F3) have rms scatters of (0.88", 0.23", 0.49") cf (1.06", 0.43", 0.50") previously.

  • A new track model was installed at 15:30 HST on 19991029 - using (note added HST 19991029:15:35) a yaw factor of 1.00 instead of 1.21, following the work of 990923.

Symmetry
The symmetry remains good : see the plot .
