Linear Algebra, Geodesy and GPS discusses algorithms, generally
expressed in MATLAB, for geodesy and global positioning. Three parts
cover basic linear algebra, the application to the (linear and also
nonlinear) science of measurement, and the GPS system and its
applications. This book has many strengths. It offers a variety of
points of view. It is complete, helpful, and you may find an explanation
that appeals to you. .A popular article from (June 1997) "The
Mathematics of GPS" is included as an introduction. Annotation c. by
