MoreFix Routine


A least squares computational routine for the purpose of precise levelling adjustment was successfully developed. The routine named as MoreFix written in Fortran was the result of many years of research effort done without any funding received. The routine was tested using precise levelling data from several places locally as well as foreign. It was used among others for the adjustment of levelling network of UAE and Oman. The most challenging task was for Oman with network consist slightly more than three thousand BMs were computed.

The most recent updating of MoreFix has been worked out and it  include the new scheme of observation weighting, scaling the residual to accommodate realistic global test and re-scaling it back to compute standard error.

This latest work improvements were done in conjunction with special lectures on least squares adjustment given to graduate students today.
