Abstract

            The adjustment of observation is an important applications in the remote sensing and the geodesy. for this purpose , nineteen control ground points at the University of Baghdad, navigated by Garmine GPS navigator (UTM projection, WGS-84 Datum) has accuracy about (15-100) m and measured  by the Total Station Leica 1200. The configuration of set data or these control ground points were a  full curve in the real world. In this paper, the none liner  Least-Squares Estimation Method (NLLSEM) has been used to estimate parameters of  the quadratic function and to test configuration of the points . The quadratic function for total station and GPS, have been compared and many mathematical processes  have been written by MATLAB language. The quadratic function of best fit for total station : y(x)=-0.38*x2+3.4e+005*x-7.4e+010 with accuracy 3.7422e+019 m2 but for GPS :y(x)=-0.24*x2+2.1e+005*x-4.7e+010 with accuracy 1.0336e+019 m2.
