Diffuse solar irradiance is a measure of the rate of incoming solar energy on a horizontal plane at the Earth's surface resulting from scattering of the Sun's beam due to atmospheric constituents. Diffuse solar irradiance is measured by a pyranometer, with its glass dome shaded from the Sun's beam. The shading is accomplished either by an occulting disc or a shading arm attached to a solar tracker. The angle subtended by the shading disc of the diffuse pyranometer should be the same as the field of view of the pyrheliometer. It is important that the dome of the pyranometer is always fully shaded from the Sun's beam to ensure accuracy of measurement, and should be checked for correct alignment on a regular basis. 4, record 2, English, - pyranometer

The delivery must be straight, the movements properly coordinated, the body in balance, and the release controlled and consistent. As each skill improves, so does accuracy.

Conventional airborne gravimeters are essentially one-axis instruments which determine the magnitude of gravity by using a highly accurate accelerometer in flight to measure the magnitude of gravity along the local vertical. Although horizontal accelerometers are used on the platform, they are generally of poorer accuracy and are only suitable for supporting the alignment process. They cannot give the direction of the vertical with comparable accuracy. Thus, the term scalar gravimetry is used in this case. This is different with airborne gravity systems based on the principle of measuring the specific force vector by a three-axes inertial system and the aircraft acceleration vector by differential GPS. In this case, the three accelerometers of the inertial system are of the same accuracy and the three acceleration components of the aircraft show only small differences in accuracy due to the geometry of the GPS constellation. Thus, three components of each vector can be estimated with high accuracy and the full gravity disturbance vector can be obtained by differencing the specific force and the aircraft acceleration vector. 2, record 9, English, - specific%20force%20vector

The process of using the earth’s spin to find the direction of north. 2, record 12, English, - gyrocompassing
Record number: 12, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The accuracy of the INS [inertial navigation system] is dependent on the accuracy of the initial position information. Therefore, system alignment, normally called gyrocompassing, at the beginning of the flight is very important. The accelerometers must be levelled and the system must be oriented to true north. 3, record 12, English, - gyrocompassing

Les coordonnées du point de départ, données de base des calculs, sont introduites par le pilote dans le calculateur de la centrale [à inertie] au moment de l'alignement de la centrale à l'arrêt, avant le décollage. L'alignement de la centrale s'effectue automatiquement et de façon autonome, en utilisant uniquement ses accéléromètres et ses gyroscopes. Il consiste tout d'abord à caler la plate-forme dans le plan horizontal local, puis à trouver l'orientation de l'axe x de la plate-forme par rapport au nord géographique. Une fois l'alignement terminé, la centrale peut fournir le cap de l'avion [...] et il est possible de connaître l'attitude de l'avion et de représenter ainsi un horizon artificiel. 2, record 12, French, - alignement%20de%20la%20centrale

La précision de l'INS [système de navigation par inertie] dépend de l'exactitude de l'information concernant la position initiale. Par conséquent, l'alignement du système au début du vol revêt une grande importance.
