A study of distorsions of the primary triangulation network of Slovenia

Abstract

The paper presents some methods of transforming ETRS89 co-ordinates to official Slovenian datum (D48) co-ordinates. Together with traditional transformation methods of scaling, translation and rotation least squares collocation is also used. The results of different transformation procedures between the astrogeodetic network and global co-ordinate system (ETRS89) show a lot of the drawbacks of existing national co-ordinate frame.
