     3-DIMENSIONAL ADJUSTMENT REPORT
     ===============================

The following section shows the unadjusted measurements that make up the network. The control coordinates are displayed first followed by the GPS vectors. The control coordinates are displayed as latitude/longitude, SPC Grid XYZ, and geocentric XYZ. If geoid modeling is set both ellipsoid and orthometric elevations are displayed, ellipsoid elevation in the latitude/longitude section and orthometric elevation in the SPC section. The GPS vector section shows the unadjusted delta XYZ, variances and covariances of the vectors.
