x (7.5 * t/(237.3 + t)) + 0.7857
If the basic value of 60 % relative humidity as used by the EDM is retained, the
maximum possible error in the calculated atmospheric correction is 2 ppm, 2 mm/km.

The values for D

are always negative and are derived from the following formula:
Projection distor-
tion D
3
The magnitude of the projection distortion is in accordance with the projection system
used in a particular country, for which official tables are generally available. The
following formula is valid for cylindrical projections such as that of Gauss-Krüger:
In countries where the scale factor is not unity, this formula cannot be directly applied.
