Sloan Digital Sky Survey Telescope Technical Note 19970527 Walter Siegmund . ... Pointing Error Budget . ... The interleaved strips and adjacent stripes overlap about 1 arc minute. ... However, a 2-D pointing accuracy of 3 arc seconds RMS leads to acceptibly uniform overlap and minimises the number of cases that require special handling (Table 3). ... A guide fiber bundle diameter of 16.5 arc seconds and a pointing accuracy of 3 arc sec RMS results in 99% initial success in acquiring guide stars. ...

... Astrometry with the FGS, by contrast, proceeds in the reverse order; the positions of the individual objects are found first, and then a virtual plate is constructed with the help of data from the guide stars and check stars. ... Corrections based on guide star data are referred to as POSITION mode dejittering , and those based on check star data are called drift corrections . ... The adjustments to the astrometry centroids from this POSITION mode dejittering correction are typically about 1 mas. ...

... With the ATCA beam at 3mm being comparatively small ( ), it is possible for tracking errors to be significant. ... In additional poor tuning of the antenna drive systems can sometimes cause poor tracking, particiularly soon after a change in source. ... Tracking errors are caused by flaws in the drive servo system, whereas pointing errors are a sum of tracking errors and errors in the antenna pointing model. ... The task uvflag can be used to flag based upon rms tracking error. ...

... With enough velocity, a spacecraft can break loose from the Earth's gravity and enter an orbit around the Sun, like that of a planet. If it then orbits the Sun with the same period as the Earth--one year--it may keep a fixed position relative to Earth. ... If the distance is just right--about 4 times the distance to the Moon or 1/100 the distance to the Sun--the spacecraft, too, will need just one year to go around the Sun, and will keep its position between the Sun and the Earth. ...

... The fitting package in STSDAS (Space Telescope Science Data Analysis System) relies on two basic techniques (one linear and one non-linear) for fitting functions to data. ... Results show that both methods may generate biased coefficients (at the ~few percent level), and over or under-estimate error bars (at the ~10 percent level), in particular from low signal-to-noise data. ... Function coefficient errors are computed directly from the covariance matrix. ... Abscissa is signal-to-noise. ...

For a sample of 16 people, the error would be 4/16 = 25%. This a large error since the range of YES vs NO is from 0-100% if 12 people answered yes and 4 people answered no then your result would be: . Percentage yes = 75 +/- 25% . ... For a sample fo 1000 people, the error would be SQRT(1000)/1000 = 33/1000 = 3%. If 750 answered yes and 250 answered no then your result would be: . ...
