Description

A comparison of the data (source) and the control (reference) is calculated in the following manner:

1. Calculate the absolute error in the horizontal dimension at each point:

Δ H i = ( source X i − reference X i ) 2 + ( source Y i − reference Y i ) 2 for i = 1…N

2. Calculate the mean horizontal error:

μ H = ( ∑ Δ H i ) N

3. Calculate the standard deviation of the horizontal errors:

σ H = ∑ ( Δ H i − μ H ) 2 ( N − 1 )

4. Calculate the ratio of the absolute value of the mean error to the standard deviation:

ratio = | μ H | / σ H

5. If ratio > 1 , 4 , then k = 1 , 281   5

6. If ratio ≤ 1,4, then calculate k, the ratio of the mean to the standard deviation, using a cubic polynomial fit through the tabular values as defined in the CRC Handbook of Tables for Probability and Statistics [ 20 ]

k = 1 , 643   5 − ( 0 , 999   556 × ratio ) + ( 0 , 923   237 × ratio 2 ) − ( 0 , 282   533 × ratio 3 )

7. Compute CE90 for the source:

CE90 source = | μ H | + ( k × σ H )

8. Compute absolute CE90:

CE90 abs = CE90 reference 2 + CE90 source 2
