Quality
Accuracy / Calibration
Hor. accuracy
- Measure description
-
Varying positioning methods has been used and hence it is impossible to set one value of the accuracy. It can vary from <1m to 50m.
- Value
- 50m
- Evaluation method description
-
No validation done.
Vert. accuracy
- Measure description
-
Varying survey methods has been used over the years and hence it is impossible to set one value of the accuracy. All surveys performed in the fairway areas fulfills the demands in the Finnish/Swedish realisation of IHO-S44, named FSIS-44.
- Evaluation method description
-
No validation done
