Les budgets d'erreur pour l'exactitude absolue viennent dans deux chiffres : une limite d'erreur, mesurée comme une distance (erreur circulaire) et un niveau de confiance (mesuré en pourcentage). Une interprétation est que les pourcentages de niveau de confiance des points sont transformés sur la distance d'erreur de la bonne réponse. L'exactitude relative ajoute une distance de limite, et peut être approximativement interprétée comme deux points dans la limite d'une des autres qui sont transformés de sorte que la distance les uns des autres soit changée par pas plus que l'erreur circulaire. 3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9cart%20circulaire
