Investigations have been performed for four large-scale digital maps made using different methods of producing digital map data: new total station survey (object A), re-calculation of previous direct measurements (orthogonal and polar surveys) (object B), manual vectorisation of a raster orthophotomap image (object C) and graphical-and-digital processing of analogue maps (object D). Analysis has been performed for large statistical samples of sets of vectors of shift t: L of control points and their components, i.e. true errors t: x, t: r of increments of co-ordinates. In the case of a map produced by means of new survey with an electronic tacheometer, the true errors were represented by differences between co-ordinates of control points obtained from two separate set outs. In the case of other methods of data collection for digital map production true errors were represented by differences of co-ordinates acquired from an investigated map and co-ordinates calculated from new direct surveys.}, type={Article}, title={The use of statistical analysis for estimation of positional accuracy of large-scale digital maps}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/121291/PDF-MASTER/5_GK__VOL_54_NO_3_2005_Doskocz_Wykorzystanie.pdf}, keywords={Digital map, accuracy estimation, statistical analysis}, }
