sun-run-sun : So we now know how to get a single position line from a single sun sight. But we need at least two position lines to get an actual position fix, or position estimate. But there is only one sun, so we have to wait for the sun to move to take another sun sight and get another position line. Ideally, we would take a sun sight in the morning and obtain a position line, and take another sight in the afternoon for a second position line. This will result in two almost perpendicular lines, which will give us the most reliable fix with two lines(the closer the lines are to [being] perpendicular, the less susceptible their crossing point is to error).  3, record 2, English, - sun%2Drun%2Dsun%20method

Traditionally, two basic approaches have been taken to the design of acoustic systems for determining the position of a surface vessel relative to a reference point on the sea floor. The first is known as the long-baseline system... The second, called the short-baseline system, uses only a single free-running seafloor beacon and measures the relative pulse arrival times at three widely spaced and precisely positioned receiving hydrophones on the surface vessel.  1, record 3, English, - short%2Dbaseline%20system

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 9, French, - %C3%A9cart%20circulaire
