During the period April 25th to May 10th, 1984 the 3rd Course of
the International School of Advanced Geodesy entitled "Optimization
and Design of Geodetic Networks" took place in Erice. The main
subject of the course is clear from the title and consisted mainly
of that particular branch of network analysis, which results from
applying general concepts of mathematical optimization to the
design of geodetic networks. As al ways when dealing with
optimization problems, there is an a-priori choice of the risk (or
gain) function which should be minimized (or maximized) according
to the specific interest of the "designer," which might be either
of a scientific or of an economic nature or even of both. These
aspects have been reviewed in an intro ductory lecture in which the
particular needs arising in a geodetic context and their analytical
representations are examined. Subsequently the main body of the
optimization problem, which has been conven tionally divided into
zero, first, second and third order design problems, is presented.
The zero order design deals with the estimability problem, in other
words with the definition of which parameters are estimable from a
given set of observa tions. The problem results from the fact that
coordinates of points are not univocally determined from the
observations of relative quantities such as angles and distances,
whence a problem of the optimal choice of a reference system, the
so-called "datum problem" arises."
