If the Systems 1 and 2 control coordinates selected are more than the exact number required for a unique solution, matrices for an over determined system of equations can be defined. This program will form the appropriate matrices for this system and then solve for the transformation parameters by rigorous least-squares methods using the Cholesky decomposition method. This program will automatically compute and display the results of a least squares transformation if redundant coordinate pairs are selected for the transformation, including a display of the residuals and appropriate statistical parameters.
