The 6th edition (2018) is currently a standard text in many college surveying programs. It often includes access to specialized software, such as ADJUST , which allows users to perform complex adjustments on real-world data sets.

: Distinguishing between systematic and random errors and learning how to mitigate their effects.

The text is designed to help students and professionals in surveying, geomatics, and GIS understand how to handle redundant measurements and minimize errors. Key goals include:
