On curves of equally advantageous position of a point in direct intersection

Abstract

These curves can serve as a guide when choosing a combination of points that is advantageous for direct intersection; and in this regard, they seem to be more rational than the curves of equal accuracy shown in Fig. 2. The latter curves retain their value for the graphical or mechanical balancing of the position of a point determined from more than two points. In this case, using these curves, we can easily determine the weight corresponding to a given combination of points and take it into account when deriving the balanced value of the coordinates of the latter.
