99/11/03 DEFECT IN PROGRAM gpscom


SYMPTOM: Snxdif comparisons between Pages and Gpscom Sinex files showed differences at the level of .1 cm which while fairly small are at the same time troublingly large. Since the runs had been set up to be identical one would hope for essentially zero differences.
PROBLEM: The equation for evaluating the weight in the case of individual site constraints had been corrected in the Pages code but had not yet been chanced in Gpscom. This change is to correctly account for the contribution due to the crustal velocity shift of the site coordinates.
CORRECTION: The needed correction was to change from a simple sum of variance componednents to a square root of sum of squares.
